Memorial plaque for NS victims in Neufeld an der Leitha

In the center of the village of Neufeld, near the local parish church, there is a memorial plaque for the Neufeld victims of National Socialism on the base of the local war memorial. This was installed following a decision by the city council on the occasion of the commemorative year 2005, 60 years since the end of the Second World War and 50 years since the State Treaty. For political reasons, the worker Josef Blaschek was executed in 1944, and further opponents of the NS regime had been sentenced to prison terms. In addition, four women from Neufeld and one man from Neufeld became victims of the "NS-Euthanasia".
