Dulag 154
Gatchina, Dulag 154 victims memorial
Dulag 154 was a transit camp for prisoners of war and a concentration camp in Gatchina that existed from 1941 to 1944. According to official data, more than 80,000 Soviet citizens, including civilians and Red Army POWs, were exterminated within its system, and its branches were located at the airfield, near the Baltic Railway Station, in the Red Barracks, and at the former gramophone factory. In the winter of 1941, a "carousel" method was used here, where prisoners were forced to walk in circles in the frost, and in 1942, 140–170 people died daily from a typhus epidemic. Not all burial sites of the deceased have been identified; according to some versions, some of them are located in the palace park and in the area of Khokhlovo Field.
