Description

The 16th seminar in Krems has two interconnected focal points. Firstly, it deals with the function of the prison institution in National Socialism, using the example of the Stein prison, and secondly, starting with the massacre of prisoners in Stein prison and in nearby Hadersdorf in April 1945, it deals with the crimes committed at the end of the war, particularly using the example of Lower Austria. In addition to historical lectures and an excursion to the sites of the violent crimes, practical teaching units (workshops) are once again being offered to support the transfer of the seminar contents into school lessons. About 80 participants are expected.

Das 16. Seminar in Krems hat zwei miteinander verbundene Schwerpunkte. Einmal beschäftigt es sich am Beispiel des Gefangenenhauses Stein mit der Funktion der Institution Gefängnis im Nationalsozialismus, dann behandelt es ausgehend vom Massaker an Gefangenen im Gefängnis Stein und im nahegelegenen Hadersdorf im April 1945 die Kriegsendverbrechen insbesondere am Beispiel von Niederösterreich. Neben historischen Vorträgen und der Exkursion an die Orte der Gewaltverbrechen werden wieder unterrichtspraktische Einheiten (Workshops) angeboten, welche den Transfer der Seminarinhalte in den Schulunterricht stützen. Es wird mit circa 80 TeilnehmerInnen gerechnet.
