The monument in honor of the 27 thousand homosexuals condemned during the Nazi regime was inaugurated this past Tuesday (05/54), close to the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin.
Rectangular in shape, the concrete block, about four meters high, has a small gap where a scene from a black-and-white film where two men kiss is projected.
The work of artists Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset aims to "keep alive the memory of injustice and establish a lasting sign against intolerance, hostility and exclusion of gays and lesbians", explain the words next to the new memorial.
