The Journey of Life - Tajikistan

Habermann's Mill
Hubert Habermann was a miller from a village in northern Moravia; he lived in inter-war Czechoslovakia and was a German. He got along with his Czech neighbours quite well; some of them were his friends, and he spoke a perfect Czech - he was speaking Czech even within his own family. During the war he occasionally helped the Czech inhabitants. When the war ended he disappeared and his wife and children were displaced from the country. The miller's murder remained unexplained and the murders were never punished. Up to the present day, the miller's name has been mystified and blurred, and it still raises fear.
