Dr. Adolf Platzgummer served as head of three district courts starting in 1924, among them in Silz. The National Socialists retired Platzgummer and imprisoned him for one month in the labor education camp Reichenau due to his functions in the authoritarian "Ständestaat." At the initiative of the Tiroler Landtagspräsident Herwig van Staa (ÖVP), the Federal Ministry of Justice and the Innsbruck Higher Regional Court erected a commemorative plaque for Adolf Platzgummer. On November 20, 2015, the section chief of the Ministry of Justice, Michael Schwanda, unveiled the plaque on the wall of the Silz District Court in a large ceremony.
