Piast Coal Mine

Silesia

On December 14, 1981, in response to the imposition of martial law, the longest post-war underground strike took place in the coal mine built in Bieruń in 1972–1975. It was organized at a depth of 650 m and lasted 14 days. The mine operated from 1972 to 2016, and currently, it belongs to the Piast-Ziemowit Coal Mine.

What happens when someone you love goes missing on a European border? There is still no European law that requires governments to identify the dead and notify their families. Over half the graves we found in our investigation were buried without a name. We present the stories of Europe’s border graves in three collections of 360 degree videos, taking us to border cemeteries in Spain, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, and Poland.
