Gedenktafel Paul Amann

On November 7, 2013, on the occasion of the anniversary of the November Pogroms, two memorial plaques were unveiled on the Paul-Amann-Brücke between Hietzing and Penzing, illuminating the life of the writer Paul Amann and his correspondence with the writer Thomas Mann. Amann had to flee first to France and then two years later to the United States under National Socialism in 1939. The plaque is part of the project "Juden in Hietzing" of the Volkshochschule Hietzing and was erected in collaboration with the district representative and the Goethe-Gymnasium.
