Memorial plaque for Ernst Königsgarten (14.7.1880 Brünn/Brno–15.1.1942 Theresienstadt). Königsgarten was a K.u.K. officer and fencing athlete. In 1906, he participated in the Olympic Games in Athens, where he achieved sixth place in the sabre competition. After the First World War, he purchased the villa and the former atelier of the painter Carl von Binzer, who had died in 1902, in Altaussee. As a Jew, he was deported to Theresienstadt on 5 December 1941, where he died shortly afterwards.
