Memorial Stone for Konrad Tiefenthaler at the Front Square of the Federal Railway Directorate Innsbruck

The railway worker Konrad Tiefenthaler was active in the resistance group "Neu Beginnen" of the Bavarian Social Democrat Waldemar von Knöringen. After intensified interrogations, he hanged himself in the cell of the hospital ward of the Landesgerichtliches Gefängnis in Innsbruck. The Socialist Railway Workers' Union erected, with the support of the SPÖ and on initiative of the "Bund Sozialistischer Freiheitskämpfer," a memorial plaque for Tiefenthaler and the staff of the railway administration who had fallen victim to Nazi rule. The vice-president of the Bundesbahndirektion Innsbruck, Adolf Sollath, and Gertrud Tiefenthaler, the daughter of Konrad Tiefenthaler, unveiled the plaque on 22.12.1988.
