Description

The Zamosc Roundhouse is a unique memorial and museum of martyrdom that was originally part of the fortifications of the Zamosc Fortress.

During World War II, the Rotunda was converted into a Gestapo camp where more than 8,000 people were imprisoned, tortured and executed. Today it is a moving museum documenting the history of the camp and the fate of its victims.

The grounds include a war cemetery, where more than 45,000 people were buried, including soldiers of the Polish Army, the Home Army, the Red Army and Jewish victims. An original door with a German inscription is a poignant testimony to history.

avatarmikael öholm5 years agoThe place is a 5-star sight, but they are doing some work at the sight. It will be open, to acces the whole place, for the public in 2020.
avatarŁukasz Mazurkiewicz2 years agoWell it is focused more on Polish victims killed by Germans during ww2 than on its historical role as part of city fortification. In short words IT is cementary/memorial place.
avatarKloc Mana year agoFree entry, a museum is located inside the old cells. Can't go up on the walls.
