"The Shoes on the Danube Bank" is a memorial in Budapest, Hungary, consisting of 60 pairs of iron shoes, that commemorates the victims of the Holocaust who were shot and thrown into the river by fascist Arrow Cross militiamen during World War II. The victims were forced to remove their shoes, which could be stolen by the militia, before being executed. The monument, installed in 2005, is a stark and powerful reminder of this atrocity. | Grace Hula Evangelista
