Description
In a state institution in Klagenfurt- a site for 'wild euthanasia' - many killings took place. During 1940 and 1941, three transports left Klagenfurt for extermination. During March and April 1946, thirteen staff members went on trial. Their names, sentences and testimonies are given here. After the war ended, the killing of psychiatric patients did not cease. Patients were still being murdered at Kaufbeuren psychiatric facility in Bavaria.
