The National Socialists persecuted priest Sebastian Haselsberger, who had accused them of setting fire to the Festival House in Erl. He was shot "while fleeing" on 4.4.1944 in the Mauthausen concentration camp. After the end of the war, Simon Haselsberger placed a memorial plaque for his brother on the outside of the parish church. On initiative of Johann Haselsberger, the nephew of the victim, the plaque was moved into the church interior in 1980, without any ceremonies.
