On May 9, 1945 the last combat on the hills above the valley at Landskron began. The invading Russians did not pay much attention to the frightened German population during the first days. They looked for alcohol, they plundered and they organized regular hunts for women at night. One could hear all night long the cries of the victims of this pursuit.

At first the few Czech residents did not know themselves what to do, they were also worried about their possessions.
