After decades of marginalisation and, more recently, years of controversial public debate spurred by misguided political statements, the victims of the Roma holocaust finally have a memorial place in Lety near Písek to pay tribute to their memory. The original site of the Roma concentration camp, which had since been used as a large-capacity pig farm (a baffling decision dating back to the Normalization period), was cleared to allow the planting of an extensive landscape memorial. Winner of an international competition, the design uses a forest—a metaphor for community—as the main compositional element, with time as an important actor in the design. There is no final or finished form, and the memorial represents a changing natural process. The primary commemorative function is complemented by an educational aspect, with an outdoor audio‑visual trail and a visitor centre.
