The local memorial site was illuminated by striking light projections; the victims of the former Hersbruck subcamp were given back their names and faces. The project was supported by senior teacher Barbara Raub and pupils from the Paul Pfinzig Gymna- sium in Hersbruck. On 3 April 2025, a remarkable event entitled “Students Present Remembrance” was held in the school’s entrance hall to mark the 80th anniversary of the sub- camp’s liberation. O C T O B E R Visit by the DFB Cultural Foundation On 14 October, the Dachau Me- morial was visited by a delegation from the DFB Cultural Foundation, headed by DFB President Bernd Neuendorf. The group included members of the Julius von Hirsch family and the winners of the 2024 Julius Hirsch Prize. This is an annual award that recognises individuals, clubs and initiatives for their com- mitment to integration, diversity and the fight against discrimination – both within the football commu- nity and beyond. In 2024, the award ceremony was held in Munich.
