How does the city manage to commemorate the crimes of National Socialism in a dignified way? 77 years after the end of Hitler's dictatorship, the public discussion is gaining momentum. The main issue is the hitherto inadequate design of the Stadthaus, the former GESTAPO headquarters. But other memorial sites should also be redesigned - not least to encourage young people to engage with the horrors of Nazi terror and to keep the memory of the victims alive. The Kulturforum Hamburg invites you to a discussion on the topic. Panel guests include Detlef Garbe, former director of the Neuengamme concentration camp memorial, and the historian Wolfgang Kopitzsch.
