Event with panel discussion to commemorate the assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler on July 20, 1944 by Count Stauffenberg.
2024 marks the 80th anniversary of the assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler on July 20, 1944. The dictator survived almost unscathed, so that the plan to
Germany from tyranny did not come to fruition. Afterwards, the revenge of the National Socialists caused the

had no connection with the assassination plans.

solutions for our state, the memory of July 20, 1944 is particularly relevant. Even if the assassins were not

historical events, we want to focus in particular on how we can protect our liberal democracy today against
radicalization and growing right-wing extremism.
