... this T-34/85 stand just in the center of the Valley of Death ... the road shown on pic 2 ends just in the middle of nowhere in heavy mud, so that it was tricky to turn my car ... but it was phantastic to look after all the war relics. Most people were very astonished about my austrian numberplate ... foreigners seem to be very rare in this little villages
.
... this monument for General Ludvik Svoboda stand near the main road at Svidnik
... at Svidnik is a large Military Museum but this town was not looking very inviting to me ...

The next step have been Banská Bystrica, which have been an old austro- hungarian town named Neusohl ...
Here in Banská Bystrica you'll find the SNP-Museum --> click here for the thread !

Those are some nice pictures.. What a great area to walk around and see some relics from ww2..
Wouldn't mind to walk over there with my MD.. xD
cheers,
... cause there have been so many mines in that area (please read the text at the pic !) it would not really be a good idea to search with a metal-detector. I never have seen any sign where this ould be prohibited but when you got under the eyes of the slovakian police ... I don't believe that this would be funny

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
