    Here, directly on the Westphalian Hellweg, used to be the place of the town of Unna. From 1514 to 1805 five executions are occupied.

    In 2017, 23 states still executed death sentences. The most common executions took place in China, Iran and Saudi Arabia. In most countries, the death penalty is abolished or no longer enforced. Source: amnesty.de/informieren/aktuell/todesstrafe-2017-zahlen-und-fakten

    Note to Article 102 of the Basic Law "The death penalty is abolished".

    Although it likely existed for over 350 years, we know of only a few executions. Only five execution days are documented.

    From the few executions in Uelzen, we can probably conclude that the people here lived so law-abiding and civilized lives that harsh punishments were rarely imposed.
