Memorial Hundegger Innsbruck

On January 27, 2024, a Zeitpunkt was placed for Josef HUNDEGGER, born on April 16, 1902 in Innsbruck-Hötting.

Worker Josef Hundegger was against National Socialism from the start.
He was arrested in 1939 and taken to the Innsbruck police detention center. From June 23 to July 20, 1939 he was "at the disposal of the Gestapo".
On November 12, the Gestapo arrested him again for "spreading horror stories". He was deported to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, where he arrived on November 15. As a political prisoner, he was taken to the Flossenbürg concentration camp on the Czech border on April 6, 1940, where he died on May 9, 1942.

The city of Innsbruck has taken a new path when it comes to commemorations.
On January 27, 2024, International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Holocaust, the new project "Zeitpunkte" was presented.
A hand-made bronze disc with a diameter of approximately eight centimeters and a thickness of three centimeters is mounted at eye level on light poles or posts in the immediate vicinity of the last freely chosen place of residence of the victims of the Nazi dictatorship. The person's name is on the round plaque, the "Zeitpunkt".
The inscription is engraved and sealed.
