Memorial Plaque for Persecuted and Murdered Ethnologists

On March 1, 2013, a memorial plaque was unveiled on the façade of the Ethnology Museum at Laudongasse 15–19, commemorating those Jewish ethnographers who supported the museum, conducted research here, and were persecuted during National Socialism. Among them were Eugénie Goldstern and Marianne Schmidl, who were deported and murdered, as well as Adelgard Perkman, who survived the Holocaust and died in Vienna in 1946. The plaque was dedicated by the museum and the Association for Ethnology.
