Elisabeth and Rudolf Gottlieb were murdered because of their Jewish heritage, Anna Gründler as a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses, Stefan Valentinotti because of his criticism of National Socialism, and the couple Alois and Josefine Brunner as left-wing resistance fighters. Sepp Gangl died during the liberation of French prisoners at Schloss Itter. On initiative of the Heimatmuseumsverein Wörgl under chairman Markus Steinbacher, the city of Wörgl placed a memorial plaque on the inner wall of the cemetery for victims of National Socialism from Wörgl. The board members Egon Frühwirth and Günther Moschig supervised the project within the museum association. On October 23, 2015, Mayor Hedi Wechner (SPÖ) and Markus Steinbacher unveiled the memorial plaque, which was blessed by Pastor Theo Mairhofer.
