The Danube
Swabians of Gakowa 2004
[Gakowa concentration
camp March 1945 to January of 1948.]
Inscription:
A monument for our beloved, left
behind in the death camp of Gakowa.
We can forgive, but can not forget.
May this symbol of faith and peace
dwell in our hearts, only from the
innermost of our harts we will find
the strength, to bear our pain. May
these leaves and flowers delight
their souls. These leaves and
flowers originate from the cemetery
of Gakowa.Here lay our
Danube Swabian compatriots, they
will remain in our hearts forever.
This cross has been raised in
respectful and dignifying memory of
them.
The Danube
Swabians are descendants of the
ethnic German settlers, who were
invited by the Habsburg emperors in
the 18th Century to colonize the
Panonian lowland.

Batschsentiwan, Batschka - Prigrevica,
Vojvodina
The memorial garden site for the former
Batschsentiwan, Batschka is located on the old site of the
cemetery today's Prigrevica, Vojvodina. The former citizens of
Batschsentiwan negotiated with the current town officials to
salvage and refurbish such monuments which were at large being
destroyed, moved or used for other purposes. Through the
untiring efforts of the HOG Batschsentiwan and their present
president Ernst Jäger, it was possible to interest such formers
citizens who's grave stone were reparable to volunteer to bear
the cost for doing so. With the erection of this memorial
garden, the former citizens found a place they can visit in
their old home town once called "Heimat." The dedication
ceremony took place in May of 2005 and the pictures you see are
from that event.
