In the 1950s, the Řetízkárna served as the changing room for prisoners of the Rovnost labor camp, located just outside of the town of Jáchymov. In 1961, the Rovnost uranium mine was closed and the prison was razed to the ground. Today, the Řetízkárna is the one of the last pieces of material history testifying to the horrors of the Jáchymov slave labor camps. In the fall of 2022, the ruin was purchased by the Political Prisoners Association. We are restoring the site and transforming it into a community center serving and an educational center that records the history of Ore Mountains, their inhabitants, and the traumas of the 20th century.
