About :
Today we invite you to discover the dark and dramatic history of the Râmnicu Sărat Prison, known as the "Prison of Silence". 🏛️ This documentary explores the essential moments of this place of detention, known for the harsh regime and harsh treatment applied to political prisoners during the communist period and even before it. Dr. Ștefan Bosomitu, a researcher specializing in the history of political prisons in Romania, will guide us on this journey and reveal impressive and, at the same time, disturbing details about the lives of those imprisoned here. 📜 The initial history and infrastructure of the building The Râmnicu Sărat Prison has a long history, starting in the mid-19th century, when it was built as a modern detention building for that time. Between 1898 and 1900, the building, with its robust and austere architecture, was considered an example of the new building standards. In the fall of 1901, Carol I visited the prison and, in a symbolic gesture, pardoned three prisoners, a sign of interest in reforming the penitentiary system. 🔹 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 The conditions of detention were inhumane, and the small cells were equipped with only the bare necessities – an iron bed, a straw mattress, a small stove and two containers for water and physiological needs. 🚨 Politicians and the Legionary Movement In 1938, with the establishment of the royal dictatorship of Carol II, the Râmnicu Sărat Prison became the place of detention for numerous members of the Legionary Movement. The harsh conditions and total isolation made their detention particularly difficult. Under pressure from the legionnaires, Carol II decides to order the execution of leader Corneliu Zelea Codreanu and other prominent members of the movement, an act implemented on the night of November 29 to 30, 1938. 💥 Major incidents and communist repression During the communist regime, Râmnicu Sărat became known for its policy of exterminating political prisoners. Many of them, considered "enemies of the state", were isolated and subjected to brutal treatment. The prison became famous for its extreme isolation, being also called the "Prison of Silence" due to the total lack of interaction allowed to prisoners. Among the personalities imprisoned here are former ministers, intellectuals and leaders of the anti-communist resistance. 🎥 What you will see in this video: 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐧𝐞𝐫
