Pictur: Memorial at WU Campus Commemorative Project for the victims of the Nazi regime

In 2012, WU launched a research project investigating the history of the then University of World Trade at the time of the Anschluss and the NS regime. One of the main objectives of the project is to identify those students who were unable to complete their studies because of their Jewish faith or their opposition to the Nazi regime.

More information on the WU Commemorative Project and the Memorial can be found here.

The Virtual Memorial Book

The biographies of the victims have been collected in a virtual, online memorial book. The biographies are based on a comprehensive search of archives and victim databases, provided online by reputable sources such as the Documentation Centre of Austrian Resistance (Vienna) or Yad Vashem (Israel). In a few individual cases, researchers even had the opportunity to conduct interviews with Holocaust survivors.
