Memorial Stone Franz Heckenast and Karl Burian

The Federal Ministry of National Defence had a memorial stone for the officers Franz Heckenast and Karl Burian, who had been murdered by the NS regime as opponents, rebuilt in March 1995. This reconstruction was initiated by former prisoners of the Buchenwald concentration camp, where Franz Heckenast had been murdered. The initiative found support with the military commander of Vienna, Karl Semlitsch, and the head of the Army Material Office, Karl Becker. Finally, in 2010, the barracks was renamed again to Heckenast-Burian Command Building, and a memorial plaque for Franz Heckenast and Karl Burian was installed in the courtyard of the building.
