In the year 1998, a memorial plaque was installed in the Brigittakirche at the Brigittaplatz in the 20th district, commemorating Sr. Maria Restituta (Helene Kafka), who celebrated her First Communion and Confirmation here. The sister of the Franciscan Order and a nurse was active in resistance against the national socialist regime and was persecuted as a political opponent. In March 1943, the NS judiciary condemned her for "favoring the enemy and preparation for high treason" and sentenced her at the Vienna Regional Court.
