Valley of Death, 1944, World War II memorial museum in Svidník, Slovakia.

The Valley of Death spans 20 square kilometers and features a collection of T-34 tanks positioned along the road between Barwinek and Prešov.

In autumn 1944, Soviet and German forces engaged in intense combat at this location during the Carpathian-Dukla operation to support the Slovak National Uprising.

The museum displays military equipment, tanks, and monuments that represent both Soviet and German forces, documenting the impact of World War II in Slovakia.

Located between Kapišová and Kružlová villages in the Prešov region, this open-air museum remains accessible to visitors throughout all hours of the day.

Eight tanks, along with cannons and lighter weaponry, stand as permanent markers across the landscape where actual battles occurred during World War II.
