Honor Roll for Dutch forced laborers at the Municipal Cemetery

Among the largest memorials to the victims of National Socialism, the honor monument for Dutch forced laborers at the municipal cemetery of Salzburg holds a special place. Created already in 1957, it currently contains 87 graves and two memorial stones. At the center of the monument stands the sculpture “The Falling Man”. The monument was initiated by the Foundation for the Care of Dutch War Graves, which wishes to commemorate the Dutch forced laborers, concentration camp prisoners and prisoners of war who were deported and murdered to the territory of present-day Austria after the German Wehrmacht's attack on the Netherlands in May 1940.
