Memorials

Currently one — in Berlin. Each memorial is a place of remembrance and a public space, maintained by local volunteers.

The memorial is yours

  • The memorial is public property. It lives because passers-by stop and help.

  • See dust? Take a brush or a rag (kept on the right of the memorial) and wipe.

  • Flowers wilting? Water them (water is behind the memorial).

  • Few flowers? Bring your own.
