The boards initiated and erected by the Foundation Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, containing information about Wilhelmstraße 72 and 73, created as part of the “Wilhelmstraße History Mile”, as well as information about the Memorial to Homosexuals Persecuted Under Nazism, needed to be renovated. The texts on the boards did not withstand the weather conditions permanently and had become unreadable after 12 years.
With a newly developed printing process, the boards will now permanently defy the weather. Visitors to Ebertstraße will find information about Wilhelmstraße 72 and 73 on the two boards at the level of the Holocaust Memorial.
The board at the Memorial to Homosexuals Persecuted Under Nazism provides information about the unprecedented persecution of homosexuals after the Nazis’ rise to power. It marks missing commemoration and explains the history of the Memorial to Homosexuals Persecuted Under Nazism here in the center of Berlin.
