The Memorial for Refugees, Expellees, and Deported from Eastern Europe in Dortmund was created by artist Curt Unger around 1960. Its inscription, 'We warn/ Association of Returnees,' recalls the fate of over 15 million people from regions like Silesia and Pomerania. Made of stone, the memorial stands at 2.2 meters tall.
