Memorial for NS Victims in Goberling

In Goberling, a district of Stadtschlaining, a memorial stone, made from the quarry of Mauthausen, was erected in 2014 in memory of the Nazi victims of the community. The project was supported by the Evangelical Parish Community of Stadtschlaining, the political community of Goberling, and the association CONCENTRUM. Between 1938 and 1945, 82 people from the village were murdered, including at least 78 Romnija and Roma. In the 450-inhabitant village of Goberling, around 120 Romnija and Roma still lived in 1940, many of whom found employment in mining. Most of them were deported to Auschwitz in 1943.
