    Shoes on the Danube Bank

    The Shoes on the Danube Bank in Budapest honor Hungarian Jews executed by the Arrow Cross Party in 1944/45. Sixty cast-iron shoes along the river symbolize victims forced to remove their shoes before execution. This silent memorial stands as a powerful reminder and a warning against forgetting.
