Osówka Complex - a memorial to the victims of Riese

Osówka is one of the sites of the German Riese project in the Owl Mountains. The tunnels were created through the slave labour of prisoners of the Gross-Rosen camp, many of whom died during the boring of the underground works. The site is connected with the history of the suffering and death of forced labourers.
