Memorial Stone against Intolerance and Hate in Front of the Friesenberghaus Ginzling

In 1999, the main committee of the German Alpine Club decided to commemorate climbers who were victims of intolerance, political, ideological, religious, and racist persecution. On 17 March 2001, the German Alpine Club apologized in its proclamation "Against Intolerance and Hate" for the exclusion and persecution of Jewish members and those who supported them. On 12/13 July 2003, the Friesenberghaus was inaugurated as an international educational and meeting place against intolerance and hate. Since then, a memorial stone with a bronze plaque has been located at the entrance to the Friesenberghaus, inaugurated by a Jewish rabbi (Andreas Nachama from Berlin), an evangelical pastor (Meynhardt von Gierke from Jenbach), and a Catholic priest (Otto Walch from Lanersbach).
