Memorial for Bomb Victims on Alois-Weidenhillinger-Weg

In the Salzburg district of Itzling, the memorial for the victims of bombing was unveiled on May 1, 1985, by the then provincial governor Wilfried Haslauer sen. and mayor Josef Reschen. It commemorates more than 500 victims of the bombing attacks between October 1944 and May 1945. The district of Itzling, where numerous NS resistance fighters lived, was a target of the attacks due to its proximity to the Salzburg main train station and the track facilities. The memorial is located between Alois-Weidenhillinger-Weg and Ischlerbahnstraße and consists of a sculpture made of natural stone, from which a metallic flower protrudes. The memorial is meant to symbolize the reconstruction of the city of Salzburg under difficult conditions.
