On the Salzburg Municipal Cemetery, since the early 1950s, there has been a collective grave for seven victims of National Socialism in group 60. For a long time, the identity of one of the interred could not be determined. Investigations by the historian Gert Kerschbaumer have now revealed that the unknown individual was Michael Chartschenko. Born in 1914 in Ukraine, Chartschenko was a forced laborer and was shot by SS men on May 4, 1945, only a few hours before liberation. The others buried were Josef Bieronski, Lech Manczak, Martin Gay, Katharina Novotny, Leopoldine Brand and Johann Sziesz.
