Christoph Probst, for a short time a student in Innsbruck and a member of the "Weiße Rose," a Munich resistance group of young people, was beheaded on 22.2.1942 in Munich-Stadelheim. At the initiative of the Austrian Students' Association, the Academic Senate and the city of Innsbruck renamed the location in front of the main university building to Christoph-Probst-Platz. On 16.3.1994, Rector Hans Moser and Mayor Romuald Niescher (ÖVP) unveiled the name plaque. The renaming is considered an internal act, so the address Innrain 52 was not changed.
