Josef Pair, Andreas Obernauer, Viktor da Pont and Anton Rausch were left-wing resisters. Da Pont, Rausch and Obernauer were executed in the prison Munich-Stadelheim. Josef Pair died as a result of the interrogations in the hospital Innsbruck. Ignaz Zloczower was presumably in contact with the resistance. He was murdered in the concentration camp Auschwitz because of his Jewish origin. Due to the initiative of Karl Prieler (cultural journalist) and Monika Skowronski (The Greens), the city council decided on 15.9.2014 to erect a memorial plaque for the Nazi victims from Kitzbühel. At Prieler's suggestion, the plaque, whose text he created, was placed in the Katharinenkirche, memorial site for the fallen of World War II. By including the Nazi victims, an "place of reconciliation and reconciliation" was to be created. The artist blacksmith Heinz Sohler made the copper memorial plaque. It was installed in the church on 6.11.2015. There was no official inauguration ceremony.
