Thematic focus

Every year since 2006, the commemoration and liberation ceremonies have been dedicated to a special topic dealing with the history of the Mauthausen concentration camp and Austria's Nazi past. The contemporary relevance of the year's theme is of particular importance, especially for young people in order to establish a connection to their own world of experience.

The thematic focus in 2024 is dedicated to the topic of "Law and Justice in National Socialism".
