Inspired by the art project "Temporäres Denkmal" by Franz Wassermann, Franz Oberdanner campaigned for the establishment of a memorial for his aunt Anna Farbmacher, a victim of the National Socialist euthanasia program. She was deported on 10.12.1940 from the Heil- und Pflegeanstalt Hall to the killing facility Hartheim near Linz. The parish priest of the Seelsorgeraum Kolsass-Weer-Weerberg, Attila Nagy-György, supported Franz Oberdanner's initiative. In August 2018, a commemorative plaque for Anna Farbmacher was installed on the outer wall near the entrance of the church in Kolsass. An official inauguration ceremony did not take place.
