Shoes on the Danube Bank

Honors Jews who were killed during WW II.Ordered to take off their shoes , shot at the edge of the water so that their bodies fell into the river . Represents their shoes left behind on the bank .

A very touching sculpture . The moment you realize you are standing in the very same spot where people were shot.., it just gets to you. You imagine them taking their shoes off, shot, corpses in Danube

Read the story from wikipedia and go there. Very nice place and near to the Parliament building.

Spend some time remembering people who were shot under the Nazi regime. Once shot they fell in the Danube. The metallic shoes commemorate these souls.

You can feel an uncertain sadness because of the history behind, you have too lay on the ground for good pictures ????

Remember the horror of the Nazi genocide of the Jewish people. Over a million Hungarian Jews were murdered before the end of the War.

Exactly there are 50 pairs of bronze shoes .

A subtle yet stark monument to those slaughtered at this very spot. Usually crowded with tourists who don't know the story and treat it like a theme park .

Incredibly thought provoking memorial.

A touching and fitting memorial to those who were executed here. A moment to reflect. No photos.

Worth seeing spot in the city .

Sad place but good to remember.

Its worth a visit!

So emotional! Amazing sculpture with such a history...

Memories of the people who died for “The Nothing”

Too much prayer materials like stones , pebbles , fake fading flowers , ribbons and candles left behind. Should be maintained daily

Must see,so atmospheric

Unique piece of history

Very poignant , shame some idiots decide to attache padlocks and other rubbish to them without giving consideration to the story behind them

Impressive

you can feel very empathetic and emotional

Poignant holocaust memorial commemorating the thousands Jews that were shot dead into the river …

Breath taking if you know the story

..to honor the people who were killed by fascist..

Letagloz a latvany.

Very touch full...

Beautiful and touching .

Tuna nehri kıyısındaki ayakkabılar.

No words.........

Touching installation.

It’s impossible not to think about the 3,500 people that had to leave there shoes there before being thrown to the river , impossible not to think how those “shoes ” once belong to someone.

Это один из лучших памятников . И это очень трогает. Действительно чувствуешь и страх и грусть и безнадежность от того что все это было, где то ещё есть, и конечно будет. Речь о жестокости

Bu ayakkabılar 2. Dünya savaşı sırasında Tuna nehri kenarında sırtından vurulmuş Yahudilerin ayakkabılırını simgeliyor. Üzücü bir hikaye...

Tuna Nehri kıyısında yürümek de Budapeşte'nin önemli bir aktivitesi.Nehir kıyısında Parlamento Binasına yakın yerde demirden ayakkabılar göreceksiniz (Shoes on Danube).

Mémorial dédié aux victimes juives de Shoah. Personnes fusillées sur cette rive ont dû enlever leurs chaussures avant d'être fusillées ????????. Sur 45 m, ces chaussures représentent la bêtise humaine.

Место трагедии и боли. Очень крутая инсталляция . Быть обязательно.

Обязательное для посещения место в городе , всё равно ведь будете гулять по набережной .

Gercekten insanin bogazi dugumleniyor. O insanlari anlamak, hatirlamak icin gorulmeli.

Особо познавательно там побывать с детьми ... чтобы они с детства воспитывали в себе осуждение жестокости ...

Em homenagem aos que foram executados a beira do Danúbio pelos flexas cruzadas. As vítimas tinham que tirar os sapatos antes de serem mortos e jogados ao rio.

Şehrin ışıklarını izlemek için çok güzel ama ????

Erinnerung an eine furchtbare und traurige Zeit der Geschichte. Never forget!

Трогает до глубины души

Из-за дождя все свечки потухли, но даже ночью в дождь мы сходили сюда. Впечатлили эти маленькие башмачки и туфельки.

Cuidado com os horários, o local fica aberto até as 18 horas, mas os tickets são vendidos apenas até as 17!

Ein Ort, der Gänsehaut garantiert

Впечатляет

Değişik ve anlamlı bir anıt .

Muy bonito

Тупым туристам кажется классной идеей сфоткать свои грабли среди бронзовой обуви монумента.
