Experience Utting's NS history on an impressive memorial walk
On Saturday, October 10, 2026, a two-hour memorial walk will take place through Utting am Ammersee, visiting significant sites of NS history. The route connects the former Dyckerhoff site with the Jewish memorial at Holzbach and the concentration camp cemetery. The focus will be on the history of the memorial sites, their symbolism, and the fate of individual victims.
From the former Dyckerhoff site to the place of remembrance
The walk begins at Josef-Clemens-Straße 6. From there, the city tour leads to the former Dyckerhoff site, where concentration camp prisoners had to perform forced labor. The term extermination through labor refers to the inhumane conditions under which prisoners were exploited and stripped of their means of life.
Memorial sites, symbolism, and local history
On the way to the Jewish memorial at Holzbach, the significance of public memorial places comes to the foreground. The tour invites participants to perceive historical traces in today's townscape and to understand the connection between regional history, individual fate, and social responsibility.
The fate of individual victims in focus
The memorial walk concludes at the concentration camp cemetery, a central memorial site. The explanations make historical correlations tangible and restore names, stories, and dignity to the victims. The calm route allows space for a concentrated, respectful engagement with the cultural heritage of the Ammersee region.
Guided by local historical expertise
The event will be led by Claus Strobl, the local chronicler of Utting. His local knowledge provides an expert access to the memorial sites and the history of the former Dyckerhoff site. Participation offers a cultural enrichment for all who want to get to know Utting and its local history beyond classical attractions.
Conclusion: Experience history consciously
The memorial walk combines movement, historical education, and active remembrance. Participants will discover important memorial sites in Utting, learn more about forced labor and NS persecution, and engage with the symbolism of the concentration camp cemetery. Participation is free; donations are welcome. For registration, please use the provided contact address of the event organization.
