Shaping remembrance
During the National Socialist era, 905 patients from the sanatorium and nursing home were murdered in the Hartheim/Linz and Pirna-Sonnenstein killing centers. In addition, around 1906 patients died between 1939 and 1945, at least 700 of them from "starvation diet" and structural neglect. In 2015, all political groups and factions represented in the city council therefore requested the creation of a "place of remembrance" for these people.
