This memorial to the victims of the death transport was unveiled in 1948; memorial services take place here very year. The memorial was built to honour the 313 concentration camp prisoners who died here during the transport. The death transport stopped at the railway station in Bohosudov on 24 April 1945. The train carrying 1880 Czech, Russian, Polish, Italian, French and German prisoners on board left the collection camp of Ammendorf / Osendort near Halle and headed towards Plzeň. When the train stopped at Bohosudov, 313 utterly exhausted and sick prisoners died here of pneumonia or typhus. Their bodies were disposed of in a deserted colliery called Elbe near the railway tracks. At the end of the war the bodies were exhumed and buried in a mass grave opposite the Church of St Procopius.
