Sashalom
Neighborhood in Budapest, Hungary From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sashalom (German: Adlerhügel) is a neighbourhood within the 16th District of Budapest. It is mostly a green and suburban environment away from traffic and businesses.
A monument was erected in Sashalom to commemorate the tens or hundreds of thousands of German people deported in January 1945 to the internment camps of the Soviet Union as slave labor.[1] There had been a battle of Budapest in early January 1945, during which Russians took the neighborhood.[2]
