On March 17, 2005, a memorial plaque was unveiled on the property at number 114 in Dirmhirngasse in the district, commemorating the synagogue of the Israelite Bethausverein Minjan, which was located next door at number 112 in Dirmhirngasse and was destroyed by the National Socialists during the November Pogroms in 1938. Efforts towards the installation of a memorial plaque had already taken place in the commemorative year of 1988, as well as in the years 1989, 1993, and 2000. In the spring of 2004, the installation was once again initiated at the urging of the district chief Manfred Wurm. However, as no agreement could be reached with the building's owners regarding the text, the plaque was erected on the neighboring property owned by Wienstrom.
