Memorial to the Immortal Victims 1934-1945

The memorial "Unsterbliche Opfer 1934–1945" was erected on April 24, 1949, on the grounds of the tram depot in Koppreitergasse in the 12th district. It consists of several commemorative plaques and inscriptions attached to a wall, a small enclosed and planted forecourt, and two lamps. Named are four tram workers and communist resistance fighters, Friedrich Fass, Leopold Ecker, Karl Krivanek (Kriwanek), Nikolaus Trajkovic (Trajkowitz), who had been executed by the NS judiciary at the Vienna Regional Court or in Brandenburg-Görden. The dedication period 1934–1945 indicates that they had already been involved in resistance against the Austro-fascist regime. The memorial is also dedicated to civilian victims of the air war. On February 21, 1945, there were heavy air raids by the Allied forces on Vienna. Included in the remembrance are also fallen soldiers.
