Polish survivors of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp inaugurated a wooden high cross on November 2, 1945 on the Catholic holiday of All Souls, which is located on the edge of the mass graves at the highest point on the site. The cross was renewed several times, but its original shape and size have been preserved to this day.
