In 2011 and 2015, the Schwaz writer Güni Noggler proposed moving the commemorative plaques for the resistance fighters Max Bär and Josef Brettauer from the entrance of the city park to the façade of the Hans-Sachs-Volksschule. Mayor Hans Lintner (ÖVP) initiated with the Cultural Committee in February 2016 the artistic design of an arcade in the city park, the former city cemetery. The Schwaz woman Andrea Bischof remembers Max Bär, Josef Brettauer, unknown resistance fighters, victims of NS euthanasia, and victims of violent systems in the past and present on a ceiling vault she artistically designed with inscriptions. The cultural officer Iris Mailer-Schrey officially opened the arcade on 21.10.2016.
