Memorial for Two Murdered Individuals in Diex/Djekše at the Karlutt Property

In Diex/Djekše was a memorial erected at the Karlutt property by the Karnten Partisan Association in 1970. It commemorates Martin Slemenšek, who settled there, born on 23.09.1903, and his life partner Margarete Mally, born on 02.06.1925. Slemenšek and Mally, who was the mother of a two-year-old child and was pregnant, were shot on their farm on 23 July 1944, due to their collaboration with the PartisanInnen. Afterwards, the farm was set on fire. The Karlutt farm can be reached by taking a turn towards Wolfstratten halfway between Diex and Grafenbach, and then driving approximately four kilometers through the forest. The memorial is located directly on the road, outside the fence surrounding the farm.
