When I was stationed in Germany, I visited Belsen concentration camp.
There a huge square mounds of earth covered with grass, each one has a small bronze plaque with '5000 buried here' another will have '10,000 buried here etc. Birds don't fly over it, they fly round it. flowers don't grow, only grass and trees. It is absolutely silent.
