Die Verleugneten. Opfer des Nationalsozialismus 1933 – 1945 – heute

In the organizer's words:

The exhibition commemorates people who were persecuted under National Socialism as "asocials" and "professional criminals". The focus is on their experiences. Between 1933 and 1945, the authorities and police took up social prejudices: they controlled, harassed and deprived tens of thousands of people of their freedom, and many were murdered. For decades, those affected were denied compensation and their experience of injustice was denied.

In February 2020, the German Bundestag decided: "No one was rightly imprisoned in a concentration camp, even those persecuted as 'asocials' and 'professional criminals' were victims of National Socialist tyranny". As part of this resolution, Parliament commissioned the Foundation Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe and the Flossenbürg Concentration Camp Memorial to create an exhibition. It represents one of the most important remembrance policy projects of the decade in the Federal Republic of Germany.
