Minute of commemoration in Neustadt: Remember the victims of the Nazi regime

In Neustadt there is an important event that is reminiscent of the dark time of National Socialism. The free religious Immanuel-Kant community invites you to the victims for the minute of commemoration, whose fates are documented in the memorial for Nazi victims. This memorial event testifies to the tireless efforts to keep the memory of the persecuted. The appointment is scheduled for this Friday at 5 p.m., and the place is none other than the artistically decorated entrance to the memorial in the Le Quartier Hornbach.

A crucial moment of this ceremony will be the striking of a bell that is considered a sign of commemoration and warning. This bell will be reminiscent of the names of the then prisoners of the concentration camp from the surrounding municipalities of Neustadt, Iggelbach and Lambrecht. These memory rituals are not only a sign of respect, but also an appeal to society to draw the teachings from history.

event opening and impulse of thought

After a felt minute of silence, which is dedicated to all victims, state spokeswoman Marlene Siegel will present a impulse. This offers the participants the opportunity to put mourning and traumatic experiences in words through National Socialism. The conversation and the exchange after this emotional moment are essential to promote dialogue about these terrible events and to ensure that such a past is never forgotten.

Another highlight of the event is the opportunity to get to know the club and its work better. Kurt Werner, the chairman of the Memorial Association for Nazi victims, will offer a lead for interested parties. These tours are not only instructive, but also convey a deeper insight into the events of that time and the importance that memorial locations have for today's society. As a result, the commemoration is not only historically but also actively carried into the present.

The importance of such events cannot be emphasized enough. They are a necessary means to maintain memory of the victims and to strengthen the responsibility of the company to prevent future atrocities. Such events not only promote memory, but also offer a platform for reflection and discussion about today's topics that are related to our past.
