Shoes on the Pest bank of the Danube is a memorial to the Budapest Jews, the victims of the Arrow Cross militiamen. During World War II the Jews were shot and fell into the river leaving their shoes behind.
The monument is located on the Pest side of the Danube Promenade at the end of Szechenyi utca, not far from the Hungarian Parliament.

the train was too late
by foot it was too far
the river too nearby
the hatred too strong
bullets through your head
river of blood
red Danube
dead Budapest
