Already on 23 October 1945, the City Council of Vienna named a temporary bridge over the Pottendorfer Line after the resistance fighter Franz Reinelt. The Reichsbahn assistant had led an illegal operational cell and had been a member of the extended Central Committee of the KPÖ. He was identified by the Gestapo on 2 December 1941 due to his communist activities. He was admitted to the Mauthausen concentration camp on 14 July 1942 and murdered there on 16 July 1942. The explanatory plaque was erected in 2004.
