In the year 1998, a memorial was erected at the Central Cemetery, Group 140, for Sr. Maria Restituta (Helene Kafka). The sister of the Franciscan Order and nurse was active in the resistance against the Nazi regime and was persecuted as a political opponent. In March 1943, the Nazi judiciary sentenced her to death for "favoring the enemy and preparation for high treason" and executed her at the Vienna Regional Court. The memorial was established by the Roman Catholic Church.
