Poland buried yesterday the remains of hundreds of people executed by the Nazis during World War II. They were recently found in the so-called Valley of Death in the north of the country. The findings by the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN) – whose mission is to investigate crimes committed by the Nazis and communist regimes – began in 2021. A hundred people attended a mass celebrated in the basilica of Chojnice, where the Valley of Death is located. The wooden coffins, decorated with red and white ribbons, like the Polish flag, were then taken to a cemetery in the region, where the victims of the crimes of the Nazi occupation are buried.
