Gedenkstein Walter Caldonazzi

On June 14, 2008, a memorial stone was unveiled at the similarly named Walter-Caldonazzi-Platz in the district of Hietzing in memory of the forestry engineer and Catholic resistance fighter Walter Caldonazzi. Caldonazzi was part of the Catholic, monarchist resistance organization centered around Priest Heinrich Maier. He was sentenced to death in October 1944 and executed in January 1945 at the Vienna Regional Court. The erection of the memorial goes back to the Catholic student fraternity Amelungia (Cartellverband), to which Caldonazzi belonged.
