List of stumbling blocks in Carinthia

Gunter Demnig laid the stumbling block for Karl Strauss, Klagenfurt 2014

The list of stumbling blocks in Carinthia contains the stumbling blocks in the Austrian state of Carinthia . Stumbling blocks remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide by the National Socialists . The stumbling blocks were designed and laid by Gunter Demnig . As a rule, they are in front of the victim's last self-chosen place of residence.

As of August 2018, only stones have been laid in the provincial capital of Klagenfurt in Carinthia, a total of 40 stones for 39 people, two stumbling blocks for Anton Fall , one in German and one in his native Slovene.

Victim groups

The Stolpersteine ​​in Carinthia are dedicated to three groups of victims:

• Jews are said to have lived in the Klagenfurt area, in Judendorf in the 12th century, when Klagenfurt was not yet founded. The first documentary evidence comes from the year 1293. When the future Emperor Maximilian I had the Jews expelled from Inner Austria in 1496, the small Jewish community in Carinthia was also affected. With the state constitution of December 21, 1867 , the settlement restrictions were lifted. Some Jewish families slowly settled there. In 1895 a small cemetery was acquired, in 1905 an own prayer house was set up in Platzgasse and in 1923 the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde was founded. The first rabbi was Ignaz Hauser from Mistelbach. In 1934 around 270 Jews lived in Carinthia. This changed dramatically after the so-called annexation of Austria to the Third Reich . Half of the Stolpersteine ​​in Klagenfurt are dedicated to Jewish citizens.

Partisan memorial in Völkermarkt

• The second group are all those who were critical of the Hitler dictatorship or who resisted National Socialism . A few flippant remarks about the Nazi regime (in the Trollinger case) or participation in a police action against National Socialists during the so-called prohibition period (in the Lexer case) were enough and life was forfeited. The ranks of resistance members spanned the entire political spectrum, from a representative of the corporate state to socialists and communists. Some groups of the Carinthian Slovenes were also actively involved in the partisan struggle against the Nazi regime. Around a quarter of the Stolpersteine ​​in Klagenfurt are dedicated to resistance fighters.
• The third group represents the victims of the murders of the sick in the time of National Socialism . In Carinthia, too, physically and mentally handicapped people were labeled as “ unworthy life ” and the doctors and nursing staff were given carte blanche to murder this population group. What began in Germany with the T4 campaign and child euthanasia was seamlessly continued in occupied and annexed areas. Nine of the Klagenfurt Stolpersteine ​​are dedicated to victims of the murders. Eight of the nine victims were deported from the Josefinum in St. Martin, a church nursing home for disabled people, and murdered in the gas chamber of the Hartheim killing center . On July 7, 1941, the last transport of deaths left Carinthia with a total of 111 people, including 25 children from Tainach who had lived in the “Josefinum” in Klagenfurt until 1939. In total, at least 733 people with disabilities from Carinthia were murdered by the Nazi regime in 1940 and 1941.

The names of the Carinthian victims of National Socialism are recorded on the monument to the names in Villach.

Memorial plaque in the country house

In June 2013, the Carinthian Governor Peter Kaiser announced that a memorial plaque would be attached to the Carinthian State Parliament for the six members of the National Council and State Parliament who were murdered by the National Socialists. This plaque also commemorates three victims to whom a stumbling block was dedicated: Antonfallen, Karl Krumpl and Franz Swoboda. The other three victims are Franz Aschgan (1899–1945), Peter Melcher (1878–1945) and Vinko Poljanec (1876–1938), who is said to have died as a result of Gestapo imprisonment. The initiator of the memorial was the local councilor Reinhold Gasper. The plaque was unveiled in May 2014 by LH Peter Kaiser and President Reinhart Rohr .
