During renovation work on the former student house in the 1990s, two painted-over frescoes by the Styrian artist Franz Köck from the Nazi era were uncovered when ascending to the second floor. As part of the discussion about how to deal with this Nazi artwork, the frescoes were "broken" by transparent panels with Nazi-critical texts (German/English), in order to create a memorial and reminder.
