Mahnmal gegen den Faschismus

In front of you stands the Obelisk of the Memorial Against Fascism. This work by Jochen Gerz powerfully reminds us of the horrors of fascism and the responsibility society holds to remember. As a part of contemporary art, it is not only a memorial but also an invitation to participate in a living culture of remembrance. Gerz, who spent much of his life in France, explores the relationship between art and life, history, and memory. Look around: just 73 meters to the north is the History Fountain, adding to the historical narrative of this area. Whether you pause here or continue on, this place challenges us all to remain vigilant.
