At the building of the British Embassy in Vienna, a memorial plaque commemorates the British diplomats, civil servants, and members of the Anglican clergy who, after the annexation of Austria by the German Reich in 1938, helped thousands of Jewish women and men escape persecution by the Nazi regime. The plaque was installed in March 2023 at the initiative of the Association of Jewish Refugees.
