Since the early 20th century, there was a Austro-Hungarian training ground in Milovice. After the establishment of Czechoslovakia, the new state’s army entrenched itself here, but was forced to capitulate without a fight after Munich. After liberation, the Czechoslovak army returned and in step with political developments underwent a number of crucial stages. In August 1968 the Milovice training ground was occupied by the Soviet army. The last soldier left Milovice in 1991. This place, influenced by the presence of armies for a century, has lost its significance. An experimental documentary about the vanishing places through which 20th century history marched.
