Memorial Plate of the Red Army

01/01/1982 – 12/31/1982

In the year 1982, a commemorative plaque was attached to the façade of the house at Platz der Vereinten Nationen 17, which thematizes the liberation of Vienna by the Red Army from the national socialist regime and refers to the last street battles in Wagramer Straße. The plaque was sponsored by the city of Vienna (Magistratsabteilung 7 - Kultur) and the Embassy of the Union of the Socialist Soviet Republics. The plaque had previously (1947–1979) been attached to the house at Wagramer Straße 9 (22) and from 1979 onwards to the house at Wagramer Straße 17. In 1982, it was moved to its current location.
