Unveiled in 2005, this somber monument features 2,711 charcoal-grey concrete stelae of varying heights arranged in a grid across a gently sloping, undulating terrain. Rather than offering a traditional memorial, the site immerses visitors into a silent, disorienting labyrinth that evokes isolation and loss. Beneath the field of pillars, an underground Information Centre preserves individual biographies and family records, grounding the abstract architecture in tragic historical detail.
