Memorial plaque for Hugo Lunardon, Landespolizeischule Feldkirch

Hugo Lunardon (1893-1940) became a gendarme in Hohenems upon his return from Russian captivity, and in 1933 he was post commander in Dornbirn. He had illegal SS members arrested and uncovered bomb attacks, for which he was awarded by President Miklas. Lunardon was arrested by the National Socialists on 12 March 1938, and via Innsbruck was sent to the concentration camps Dachau and Mauthausen, where he died in 1940 after being mistreated by an SS senior squad leader. Since 1999, the provincial gendarmerie command has commemorated him with a memorial stone on the grounds of the provincial police school in Feldkirch.
