They are dedicated to people who resisted the National Socialist dictatorship, to people who were victims of persecution or to those who were stigmatised. In addition, there are monuments dedicated to people who have made outstanding contributions in the fields of art, science, technology and the common good.<\/p>\n<p>With reference to comparable programmes in London, Paris, Vienna and Hamburg, the so-called &#8220;Berlin Memorial Plaque Programme&#8221; was adopted in 1987 on the occasion of the 750th anniversary celebrations in (West) Berlin. By 1992, more than 500 porcelain plaques designed by Wieland Sch\u00fctz and manufactured by the Royal Porcelain Factory (K\u00f6nigliche Porzellan Manufaktur, KPM) had reached the facades of houses that had been the domains of important figures and institutions. Until 1990, more than 400 memorial plaques were installed in public space in (East) Berlin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"content-side-padding-negate \">\n        <hr ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div data-element=\"km-2-columns\" id=\"km-custom-block_f3a12aa4384448d8d6993a4865ca5f62\">\n\n    <div class=\"row mt-5 mb-md-5\">\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-10 col-md-6\">\n            <div class=\"two-column-content-left font-size-base mt-2 mb-5 my-sm-0\">\n                <p>Databank<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-14 col-md-18 col-lg-17 \">\n            <p>For more Information \u00a0visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.berlin.de\/kunst-und-kultur-mitte\/geschichte\/erinnerungskultur\/gedenktafel-datenbank\/\">Memorial Plaque Databank.<\/a><\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"content-side-padding-negate \">\n        <hr ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div data-element=\"km-2-columns\" id=\"km-custom-block_8da5c582674b06c10ec9cb02d9063825\">\n\n    <div class=\"row mt-5 mb-md-5\">\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-10 col-md-6\">\n            <div class=\"two-column-content-left font-size-base mt-2 mb-5 my-sm-0\">\n                <p>Contact<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-14 col-md-18 col-lg-17 \">\n            <div>\n<div>\n<p>Head of the Department for Remembrance Culture and History<br \/>\nNathan Friedenberg<br \/>\n(030)460601916<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:friedenberg@mittemuseum.de\" data-enc-email=\"sevrqraoret[at]zvggrzhfrhz.qr\" data-wpel-link=\"ignore\"><span id=\"eeb-929431-10272\">friedenberg@mittemuseum.de<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Deputy Head of the Department of History and Remembrance Culture<br \/>\nSigrid Schulze<br \/>\n(030)460601924<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:schulze@mittemuseum.de\" data-enc-email=\"fpuhymr[at]zvggrzhfrhz.qr\" data-wpel-link=\"ignore\"><span id=\"eeb-884762-776861\">schulze@mittemuseum.de<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"content-side-padding-negate \">\n        <hr ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div data-element=\"km-2-columns-downloads\" id=\"km-custom-block_27b4adf544b4d5f307229ec997f3ad95\">\n\n    <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-10 col-md-6\">\n            <div>\n                <p>Forms<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-24 col-sm-14 col-md-18\">\n            <div class=\"list-download list-bordered\">\n                                    <div class=\"row list-bordered-item\">\n                        <div class=\"col p-0\">\n                            <div class=\"d-block d-md-flex py-3 align-items-center justify-content-between\">\n                                <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-md-row text-center text-md-left align-items-center\">\n                                    <!--<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-fluid d-none d-md-inline mr-md-3\" style=\"width:35px\" src=\"https:\/\/kultur-mitte.de\/wp-content\/themes\/kulturmitte-theme-v3.1\/library\/images\/logo-pdf.svg\" alt=\"icon document\">-->\n                                    <h4 style=\"padding-top: 5px;\">Memorial Plaques Form<\/h4>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-md-row align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-md-end justify-content-md-center\">\n                                                                                                                                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/kultur-mitte.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Antrag_auf_Sondernutzung_JH_140422.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn btn-md btn-outline-dark\" role=\"button\">\n                                        Download\n                                        <span class=\"icon-arrow-down\"><\/span>\n                                    <\/a>\n                                    <!-- <p>Size: 321kb<\/p> -->\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                            <\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"content-side-padding-negate \">\n        <hr ><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-4563","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
