voestalpine contemporary history MUSEUM

The Museum of Contemporary History is dedicated to the fate of the tens of thousands of people who, between 1938 and 1945, were employed as forced laborers in the construction and operation of Reichswerke Hermann Göring AG Berlin at its Linz site.

With the Zeitgeschichte MUSEUM, voestalpine commemorates the Nazi forced labourers of the Reichswerke Hermann Göring in Linz.

The four successive areas of the Zeitgeschichte MUSEUM provide comprehensive insights into the inhumane system of Nazi forced labour at the Linz site. Audio documents give the victims of the Nazi forced labour system a voice, accompanied by extensive explanations, visual material and multimedia stations. The basis for this is 38,000 Nazi wage files and personnel sheets from the Linz factories of the Reichswerke Hermann Göring from the years 1938-1945.
