Remembering, Commemorating, Warning: A Moving Memorial Ceremony in Lindau

On Monday, November 9, 2026, the initiative Grandmothers Against the Right Bodensee invites everyone to the memorial ceremony on the occasion of the anniversary of the Reich Pogrom Night at the Peters Church in Lindau. From 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM, the event will focus on remembering, dignified commemoration, and a clear warning against all forms of inhumanity.

Women in National Socialism in Focus

This year's memorial ceremony will highlight the experiences of women during the time of National Socialism. They were persecuted and victimized, murdered in concentration camps, or abused in prisons. At the same time, there were women in resistance, forced prostitutes, as well as collaborators and perpetrators. These diverse life paths illustrate the complexity that a culture of remembrance must encompass.

Remembering as Responsibility

The Grandmothers Against the Right Bodensee view the event as a contribution to democratic education. Remembering the crimes of the Nazi regime preserves the perspectives of the victims and raises awareness in subsequent generations about the dangers of exclusion, anti-Semitism, and political violence.

Commemoration and Solidarity

The focus is on the victims of Nazi persecution and the survivors. The memorial ceremony creates a space for quiet condolences, collective reflection, and respectful remembrance. A greeting will be given by the patroness of the event, the Mayor of Lindau, Dr. Claudia Alfons.

A Warning for the Present

The event also serves as a clear warning for the present. The Grandmothers Against the Right Bodensee position themselves against neo-fascist and right-wing populist groups in Europe. Their solidarity is with all people affected by war, persecution, and oppression.

A Conscious Event Experience

The calm atmosphere of the Peters Church supports the serious character of this memorial hour. The event experience thrives not on entertainment, but on attentiveness, audience sentiment, and a shared awareness of historical responsibility. The event planning connects a public demonstration with political education and lived culture of remembrance.

Conclusion

The memorial ceremony for the Reich Pogrom Night invites everyone to pause, honor the victims, and take responsibility for a solidarity-based society. Those who wish to keep the memory alive and take a clear stand against exclusion will find an important place for collective remembrance in Lindau on November 9, 2026.
