Memorial Plaque Erna Musik

On 3 October 2018, the city of Vienna renamed the municipal residential building at 99 Klosterneuburger Straße after the resistance fighter and Holocaust survivor Erna Musik. On the façade of the communal building, there is an explanatory plaque about the renaming of the courtyard and the biography of Erna Musik, who, as an opponent of the National Socialist regime, was arrested by the Gestapo in 1943 and deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp and from there to the Buchenwald concentration camp. At the beginning of 1945, she was sent to the Ravensbrück concentration camp, where she was forced to work in a munitions factory in the subcamp of Malchow. After her liberation, she returned to Vienna and took over the operation of her Jewish mother's business, which had been seized by the National Socialists.
