The Conmemorative Plaques

During the latest renovation and reconstruction period of the Weilmuenster Clinic complex during the last decade of the last century (1990-2003) the mayor part of the clinic cemetery with several thousand gravesides and stones has been dissolved. To maintain the memory the names written on the individual gravestones nowadays are represented on conmemorative plaques that are attributed to the different sectors of the cemetery that have been dissolved. Some other plaques remember the historic situation under the fascist regime from 1933 to 1945 that was responsable for the carrying through of the so-called "T-4 Program" that consisted in the systematic extermination of a part of the german population seen as "unworthy for life" by the german health service. Other plaques remember individual life stories of patients following the dates from former patient registers.
