\u00a0<\/strong>Only one hour outside of Prague, capital of Czech Republic, lies TEREZIN, a sleepy little country town which hides many secrets<\/strong>. Secrets which include a terrible past of the Second World War. Secrets which reveal true face of Nazi work camps. Secrets which are hard to believe.<\/p>\n

Terezin, a former Gestapo prison, a Jewish ghetto and then a deportation camp<\/u><\/strong>, consists of the Small and Big fortress.<\/u> The Small Fortress was built in 1780s and was named by Emperor Josehp II after Maria Theresa. It was originally intended to be a fortress to protect the Prussions, however, no battles were fought there. Instead, the Small Fortress became a Nazi work camp during the Second World War where mostly communists and homosexuals were sent. <\/strong>The prisoners had to work hard and then were sent further to extermination camps in the East<\/strong>. During five years of existence of Small Fortress as a Gestapo prison, between years 1940 and 1945, more than 30,000 prisoners passed through its gates.<\/p>
