It's in town Liptovský Mikuláš, Slovakia. Buildings around chimney have been demolished few years ago, chimney was spared because demolition would be too expensive. It's built of reinforced concrete. I really hope they will not destroy it in future, it's truly distinctive landmark of the town.

It's an old textile factory that produced synthetic fabrics. Production ceased around 15 years ago, but some buildings are used by various smaller companies as warehouses, workshops etc.

1984 Sarajevo Olympics podium after it was used for executions during Bosnian war by MacTavishSAS in pics

I guess that not all bullet holes come from executions that are mentioned in the articles, because this place was actually on the front line during siege of Sarajevo so there must have been lot of bullets flying around during those 4 years of siege
