Stations of remembrance in Vienna-Floridsdorf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of memorial stones in Vienna-Floridsdorf contains the memorial stones in the 21st Viennese district , Floridsdorf , which commemorate the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide under National Socialism. The laying is carried out by the Stones of Remembrance Association based in Leopoldstadt .

The concept of Wiener remembrance and memorial stones based on the pitfalls of Gunter Demnig and from this as plagiarism called. The Floridsdorf memorial stones differ from Demnig's stumbling blocks (a) in their size, (b) in that they honor several people on one memorial stone, (c) that they were made by machine and not by hand. The table is partially sortable; the basic sorting is done alphabetically according to the family name.
