The Düsseldorf Memorial was established in 1987 and is dedicated to all victims of National Socialism in Düsseldorf as a place of learning, research and remembrance.

You can pay a virtual visit to the permanent exhibition "Düsseldorf children and young people under National Socialism" in the historic town hall on Mühlenstrasse. 

The memorial sees itself as a central documentation and research center for the history of Düsseldorf between 1933 and 1945. Among other things, it uses individual biographies to explain how the lives of children and young people from different population groups changed during this period. For example, what was life like for a Jewish girl in 1938? What did her life have in common with a Hitler Youth, a young Jehovah's Witness or a young Social Democrat?
