Memorial of Slovak National Uprising, Nemecká

The memorial complex includes a statue of a mourning woman and a representation of the lime kiln where mass executions took place in 1945.

Between January 4 and 11, 1945, SS Einsatzkommando 14 and Hlinka Guard troops executed approximately 900 people at this location during Nazi reprisals.

The memorial museum displays panels in Slovak, English, and German languages, presenting documentation about the executions and subsequent investigations.

The outdoor memorial remains accessible every day, while the museum operates Tuesday through Sunday with seasonal hours and provides guided tours.

After executing victims at the top of the lime kiln, perpetrators disposed of bodies by burning them and scattering the ashes into the Hron River.
