Postbllok Memorial
Postbllok
A memorial to the victims of communism at the entrance to Blloku, made up of a section of the Berlin Wall, a bunker and mine supports from the Spaç labor camp.
The memorial stands on the site of the former checkpoint of the once-forbidden Blloku district. Completed in 2013, it was designed with input from Fatos Lubonja, a former political prisoner and writer. The three exhibits are a section of the Berlin Wall brought from Berlin, a typical mushroom-shaped single-person bunker, and concrete supports from the mines of the Spaç labor camp, symbolizing Albania's isolation and persecution. Entry is free. It lies between the Pyramid and Blloku, so it can easily be seen while walking between them.
