On November 9, 2008, a memorial plaque was unveiled in the courtyard of the Archbishop's Palace on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the November Pogroms of 1938. This plaque commemorates the "Archbishop's Aid Office for Non-Aryan Catholics," whose initiator was Cardinal Innitzer and whose leader was Ludger Born. The Aid Office was located here from 1940 to 1945 and supported numerous affected individuals. This support ranged from assistance in organizing escape to food donations and verbal encouragement. The plaque was initiated by the Israeli historian Gabriel Alexander and was funded by the Roman Catholic Church.
