Postbllok – Checkpoint
Description
- Tirana
- Posted 2 years ago
The Memorial to Communist Isolation, Postbllok (Checkpoint), honors the country’s political prisoners who endured during the Hoxha dictatorship. It is located just across from the government building on the major avenue. The monument was co-created by Fatos Lubonja, a writer and former dissident, and Ardian Isufi.
It consists of three main components: one of the small concrete defensive bunkers that dot the country, several concrete supports from the notorious Spaç labour camp, where thousands of political prisoners suffered from 1968 to 1990, and a brightly painted section of the Berlin Wall from Postdamer Platz, which once divided Germany in two.
