In memory of all victims of the Mauthausen concentration camp, an international memorial in the form of a cenotaph was erected at the former roll call square and presented to the public on 2 May 1949. The artistic design was carried out by the Federal Monuments Office Vienna and the architect Dittmann. It is the first memorial that was permanently installed on the grounds of the former concentration camp.
