Memorial plaque for Erich Forster in Thal

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the death of Erich Forster, who was born in Thal near Sulzberg and was a victim of the "Euthanasia" program, the local community installed a memorial plaque at the church wall in 2011, with the design also involving children from the elementary school. The deaf and mute Erich Forster was murdered in Hartheim in 1941 at the age of 56. The plaque is made of sandstone from the Rotach, which Erich Forster at that time ground up and sold as a scouring agent.
