Peaceful

The German lapidarium, which was opened in 2000 in Kolobrzeg at Arciszewskiego St in Jednosci Narodowej Park. It has restored old gravestones that were moved from former german graveyards. Before the WWII german citizens had their cemeteries located between current Grochowska St and Koszalinska St as well as Wiosenna St. The choice of the location was not a coincidence. Jednosci Narodowej Park was partially the Central Municipal Cemetery established in 1881. It was destroyed in 1945 and in 1970 authorities closed it down.
--------
Niemieckie lapidarium zostało otwarte w 2000 r. w Kołobrzegu przy ul. Arciszewskiego w Parku im. Jedności Narodowej. Posiada odrestaurowane nagrobki pochodzące z cmentarzy niemieckich. Przed drugą wojną światową niemieccy mieszkańcy Kołobrzegu chowali swoich zmarłych na cmentarzach pomiędzy ulicami obecną Grochowską i Koszalińską, czy przy ulicy Wiosennej.
Miejsce nie jest przypadkowe. Park im. Jedności Narodowej częściowo był niegdyś Centralnym Cmentarzem Komunalnym utworzonym w 1881 r. Wojna zniszczyła cmentarz w 1945 r. , a w 1970 r. władze zamknęły go.

    Dobrze, że uszanowano dawnych mieszkańców Kołobrzegu i urządzono lapidarium, które jest zbiorem nagrobków pozostałych po zlikwidowanych po II wojnie światowej cmentarzach niemieckich. To smutne ile zniszczono żydowskich nagrobków i cennych macew.
    Bardzo interesujące zdjęcie.

    It is strange to see and think of gravestones without their graves.

      I didn't think of it like that.I think of it rather as symbol of people, who used to live in Kolobrzeg.

      That too, yes. It is good that you keep their memory alive.

      It is, but also good place to think about life.
