On 9 November 2021, a Shoah Names Wall Memorial was opened in the Ostarrichi Park. It specifically commemorates the approximately 65,000 Jewish victims in Austria. The project was initiated by the commemorative year of the Republic of Austria in 2018. It was realized on the initiative of the Holocaust survivor Kurt Yakov Tutter and the Association for the Establishment of a Shoah Names Wall Memorial, and was supported by the National Fund. The memorial was financed through funds from the federal government as well as contributions from the federal states and donations. The total costs amounted to approximately 5.3 million euros. The design planning and realization of the memorial was carried out by the architects Wehofer ZT GmbH. For the further preservation of the site, the city of Vienna and the National Fund took joint responsibility.
