A Silent Witness Becomes a Memorial: The Plaque at Franz-Reinisch-Platz

More than just a plaque is attached to the facade of WIDER.STAND at Franz-Reinisch-Platz 1 in Hall in Tirol. Every word on it is an echo from a dark time; every name is a fate; every place of remembrance is a charge for the present.
This memorial plaque is dedicated to those women and men who found the courage to resist Nazi injustice. It commemorates all those who were persecuted, imprisoned, and murdered because they stood up for humanity, freedom, and their convictions. It lists the individual names, embracing them all—the known and the forgotten.
With this website, we want to keep the stories behind the plaque alive. We shed light on the diverse forms of resistance, remember the people who carried it out, and ask what their legacy has to tell us today.
Their charge to us is not to forget.
