Memorial Plaque for Jodok Meusburger in Bezau

Of the more than 700 patients interned at the institution "Valduna" in Rankweil between 1938 and 1941, 57 were born in a community in the Bregenzerwald region. Most of them were murdered in the NS killing facility Hartheim or died in other so-called "Heil- und Pflegeanstalten". In 2009, several communities in the Bregenzerwald region decided to commemorate the "Euthanasie" victims, and memorials were erected at many locations. In 2009, a memorial plaque for the "Euthanasie" victim Jodok Meusburger (1895–1943), who died in Hall on 4 December 1943, was attached to the War Memorial Chapel in Bezau.
