The mayor of Stuttgart, Frank Nopper, no longer wants a commemorative plaque for the murders in Hanau to be attached to the town hall – but there is resistance.
Stuttgart – A commemorative plaque for the victims of Hanau, illegally attached to the town hall, is the reason for a heated debate. Mayor Frank Nopper no longer wants the plaque that was put up in 2021 by the “Stuttgart gegen Rechts” initiative on the town hall wall as soon as possible. “A year ago, the city administration had the board removed for the first time, among other things for reasons of equal treatment,” says the reasoning.

On the Stuttgart city council, Luigi Pantisano from the left faction disagrees. He thinks the decision to remove the commemorative plaque for the victims of Hanau from the town hall was wrong. Ironically, when it comes to the victims of racist violence, according to Pantisano, the mayor takes it out and makes the city of Stuttgart look bad as an institution. Pantisano: “Such a positioning could have come from the AfD.” * BW24 is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
