Massacres

  • In our graphic representation of the places where the genocide of Roma and Sinti took place, empty stones symbolize those places where massacres were carried out, but which receive little attention in official historiography and the dominant culture of remembrance. It would be historically inaccurate to give the impression that the genocide was carried out exclusively in the well-known extermination camps. Numerous massacres were carried out outside the large camps, often in small villages or remote places that have remained largely invisible.
