The author analyses six photographs and one typescript linked with the history and
post-war perception of the site of the former concentration camp in Lety u Písku,
which are part of the photographic collection “Mirovice region and the Protectorate
Period in Photography (1939-1945)” by Karel Hungr, an amateur photographer
from Mirovice. The author deals not only with the reconstruction of the situations
depicted or hinted in the archival materials, but also with Hungr´s motivations
that led him to take the pictures during the Second World War and to write texts
for them at the end of 1960. Thus, the author asks what can be learned from the
material for further research on the post-war perception of the Holocaust of the
Czech Roma and Sinti.
