The memorial plaque was installed in 1963 in the foyer of the General Directorate of the Post at Postgasse 8. It commemorates soldiers who died in the First World War as well as postal employees murdered by the national socialist regime. The plaque was funded by the Austrian Post. Post-Generaldirector Benno Schaginger (himself a concentration camp prisoner at Dachau, resistance fighter) initiated the plaque. Since the sale of the house (2014), the plaque is no longer accessible.
