Budapest (3) The Shoes on the Danube Bank

Shoes were permanently fixed on the Danube Bank.  It is a memorial to these Holocaust atrocities that sits in front of the magnificent Parliament building on the edge of the river. What visitors will see are 60 pairs of rusted pair of shoes cast out of iron. Different sizes and styles reflect how nobody was spared from the brutality of the Arrow Cross militia (the shoes were from children, women, businessmen, sportsmen ...)
