Concentration Camp Memorial

I have posted a picture of the Uitenhage Concentration Camp Memorial before, but wanted to post another. It is situated on the site where there was a concentration camp for Boer women and children during the Anglo Boer War (1899 - 1902). Each of the pieces of back wall represents one of the 9 people who died in the concentration camp.

  1. Where in PE is this memorial?

    Across Mount Road from the Mount Road Police Station?

  2. Firefishy - This is the memorial in Uitenhage. Its on the northern side of the town at the old Uitenhage show grounds. There is one on Mount Road as well.
