List of stumbling blocks in the Salzburg area

Stumbling blocks for Johann and Matthias Nobis

The list of Stolpersteine ​​in Salzburg-Umgebung contains the Stolpersteine in the political district of Salzburg-Umgebung , which remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide by the National Socialists in Austria.

The stumbling blocks were laid by Gunter Demnig , as a rule before the Nazi victim's last freely chosen place of residence. The stumbling blocks for the two Jehovah's Witnesses, Johann and Matthias Nobis , who were executed in 1940, were moved on July 19, 1997. These were the first stumbling blocks to be laid in Austria and the first worldwide to be officially approved.

Some of the tables can be sorted; the basic sorting is done alphabetically according to the family name.

General Austrian soil Credit institute , was raised from the age of 30 years to the peerage and was one of the prominent representatives of the assimilated Jewish wholesale and educated middle of the Habsburg monarchy . Only after her father's death was she able to fully devote herself to her artistic inclinations. From 1911 to 1914 she spent - together with her artist colleague Emma Schlangenhausen - a study visit to Paris . From 1915 to 1918 she worked as a Red Cross nurse on the Isonzo Front . In 1919 she settled in Anif near Salzburg, in 1923 she converted to the Catholic faith, in 1927 the first exhibitions took place in Salzburg and Vienna, in 1929 in Paris and The Hague. In 1934 she commissioned the Salzburg architect Otto Prossinger to build a studio house in Anif. She was deported by the Gestapo to Vienna on February 28, 1940, expropriated in 1941 and deported to the Izbica Ghetto on April 9, 1942 . She was murdered by the Nazi regime either there or in one of three extermination camps - Belzec , Sobibor or Majdanek . The death certificate is dated April 21, 1942. At least two of her siblings - Alice von Wassermann and Clara von Hatvany-Deutsch - were also victims of the Holocaust , as was their nephew, Robert von Wassermann. The circumstances of the death of her brother Karl von Taussig and her sister Hedwig May-Weisweiller are unclear. Seven of the eleven siblings were able to survive the Nazi regime. Expression study by Helene von Taussig, 1920 Helene von Taussig's painterly oeuvre is mainly dedicated to portraits of women and was completely forgotten for five decades. Most of the artist's works have apparently disappeared; only three works are known to be in private ownership and a bundle of 19 works that the Salzburg painter Wilhelm Kaufmann is said to have found in the basement of the Salzburg Künstlerhaus and which he handed over to the Salzburg Museum Carolino Augusteum in 1988 . The exhibition Artists in Salzburg in 1991 at the Carolino Augusteum commemorated the artist for the first time after the Nazi regime. In 2002, the Personal Helene von Taussig - Die resetteten Bilder , curated by Nikolaus Schaffer, who also wrote the catalog, followed. In 2012 the 19 pictures were handed over to the heirs, eleven of which were legally acquired by the Carolino Augusteum , which is now called the Salzburg Museum .
