Memorial Plaque for House Inhabitants and Jewish Associations

On November 30, 2007, a memorial plaque was installed on the façade of the house at Tempelgasse 5A. It remembers former residents who became victims of the antisemitic persecution by the national socialist regime. The memorial commemorates plundering, deportation and murder during National Socialism. The plaque also remembers the many Jewish institutions and associations that were located in this building, among them the library and archive of the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde, the Rabbinerverband in Vienna, and the Verein für jüdische Geschichte und Literatur.
