On the weekend around the so-called „Remembrance Day“ (Sunday, November 15, 2026) in Germany the „dead from war and tyranny“ thought. The day of remembrance is intended to remember the victims of the two world wars.
We say:
German perpetrators are not victims! We look when Nazis want to practice heroic commemoration, in Neukölln, Köpenick and elsewhere!
Anti-fascist memorial policy instead of national mourning day!
The Volksbund War Graves Commission (VDK) often organizes commemorative events in cemeteries together with politicians, the Bundeswehr, soldiers' associations or the police. What is practiced there is often a politics of remembrance in which perpetrators and victims are equated. While the “fallen comrades” are remembered directly internally, public events are labeled as remembering the “victims of war and tyranny”.
We know – Fascists, nationalists and revisionists regularly use this day to glorify Nazi heroes and celebrate militarism, martyrdom and death in the fight for the fatherland.
In 1922 the “Remembrance Day” was held for the first time. In 1934 he was killed by the Nazis on "Heroes' Memorial Day". renamed. The content was nationalistic and militaristic from the start. The call from 1926 says: “And that is what the Day of Remembrance should be and become: a symbol of their spirit in which they went out in endless enthusiasm, in which they fought like lions, suffered like martyrs, died like heroes for the great goal: Germany, Germany above everything, above everything in the world!”
The VDK always had connections to people and organizations from the spectrum of displaced persons' associations, traditional military associations and, until 1987, also to the association of soldiers of the former Waffen-SS, the “Mutual Aid Association of Members of the Former Waffen-SS” (HIAG).

Nazis currently feel on the rise – This year they are calling again to place wreaths, candles or flowers in many places, at cemeteries or war memorials, to clean the graves, to commemorate the "heroes".
Popular places for this in Berlin e.g.:
– the former garrison cemetery in Berlin-Neukölln (Columbiadamm Cemetery), where there are many war memorials
– the Lilienthalstraße cemetery, the central memorial site for the Wehrmacht soldiers in Berlin. The cemetery was built between 1938 and 1941 on behalf of Albert Speer as a burial place for the “fallen” Wehrmacht soldiers.
There are collective graves from the First and Second World Wars in the Rudower Str cemetery in Köpenick. This year the Nazis from „DIE HEIMAT“ Berlin will throw candles or more there on the night of November 14th. on November 15th, 2026 from 10:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m
The entrance is at Rudower Str 23, 12557 Köpenick
