This is the path that was received as the "escape road" in 1956 in
world history. That road was used by the Einser-channel, which forms the border
with Hungary, on the historic bridge at Andau as the last escape route of many
thousands of people.
After the breakdown
of the Iron Curtain, a group of artists made 1992-96 an international Symposium
"Flucht und Vertreibung", and then placed their works at the
"Street of Escaping" between Andau bridge and Andau village.
More than 90 sculptures are left and right at the road and also at the
Andau-bridge area beside the Einser-channel in a outdoor gallery of unique
proportions.
