J5 VÁRPALOTA (H)

In February 1945 members of the Hungarian fascist Arrow Cross party and local police officers killed 123 Hungarian Roma from Várpalóta and Székesfehérvár. The victims had to dig their own graves and were then shot. Two women survived the massacre. The mass grave now lies under the waters of Lake Grabler, near Inota, a suburb of Várpalóta.
