On Monday, 11th November 2024 a memorial event for Dr Fritz Zieglwallner will be held at Maximiliansaal. Afterwards a Memorial Sign for Fritz Zieglwallner will be placed at his former residence in Karl-Scharnagel-Ring, formerly Seitzstraße 3.
Return of the Names is a remembrance project organised by Bayerischer Rundfunk and the City of Munich. On 11 April 2024, several thousand people in Munich commemorated 1,000 Munich residents who were persecuted and murdered during the Nazi era.
The Coordination Centre for the Memorial Signs in the Munich Cultural Department is pleased to present the new website for the Memorial Signs in Munich.
The network of Memorial Signs is growing constantly. Our map will help you to find the exact locations of Memorial Signs and provide you with short biographies of the people commemorated.
Find out more about how you can help to give the victims of the Nazi regime a place in our city society by applying for a Memorial Sign yourself or by becoming a sponsor.
“Memory is like water: it is vital, and it finds its own way into new spaces and to other people. It is always specific: it has faces in mind, and places, and smells, and sounds. It has no expiry date, and it cannot be declared to be completed or finished by any kind of resolution or ruling.”
Noach Flug (1925-2011), survivor of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp and President of the International Auschwitz Committee
