Memorial Plaque for Kaspar Feld in the Parish Church of Saint Rupert

The memorial plaque in the parish church of the community Lend remembers the parish priest Kaspar Feld, who expressed his convictions against the NS regime and was therefore arrested in 1943 and subsequently deported to the concentration camp Dachau, where he was interned until April 1945. The historian Rudolf Leo took up the fate of Kaspar Feld in the context of his research on National Socialism in the Pinzgau. The results of this research were considered a significant impetus for the establishment of a place of remembrance for the native Saarland parish priest. The plaque was unveiled in July 2018 together with the memorial plaque for the resistance fighter Josef Scherleitner.
