On the current school grounds of the Freie Waldorfschule Graz, there was a branch of the psychiatric institution "Am Feldhof", from which over 260 people were transported to Schloss Hartheim (Upper Austria) for gassing in 1940/41. In addition to a memorial erected in 2020, a plaque remembers those who suffered injustice and violence during the time of the Monarchy, the First Republic, and the Ständestaat dictatorship, as well as those who fell victim to the NS euthanasia program during the time of National Socialism.
