Memorial plaque for Johann Orszag at the House of Friendship – Tiroler Kinderfreunde on the Hungerburg, Innsbruck

Johann Orszag was one of the key figures in the establishment of Social Democracy in Tyrol. Professionally, he managed the First Tyrolean Workers' Bakery (ETAB). On 21 May 1938, Orszag hanged himself in the attic of the ETAB after an illegal National Socialist had reported him on the false charge of financial irregularities. On the 50th anniversary of Johann Orszag's death, the Kinderfreunde Tirol and the "Bund der Sozialistischen Freiheitskämpfer" Tirol unveiled a memorial plaque in his honor on 11 June 1988 at the Kinderfreunde holiday home on the Hungerburg. The city of Innsbruck and the state of Tyrol covered the costs.
