In Anerkennung der Opfer von Gewalt in Einrichtungen / der Wiener Jugendwohlfahrt der Nachkriegszeit. / Von diesem Standort, der ehemaligen Kinderübernahmestelle, / wurden Kinder in Heime und Pflegefamilien gebracht, / in denen sie erschütternden alltäglichen Erziehungspraktiken / und institutioneller Gewalt ausgesetzt waren. / Diese dunkle Seite der Geschichte ist uns Mahnung / in der Gegenwart und Auftrag für die Zukunft. /
Der Bürgermeister / Dr. Michael Häupl / 2016

In recognition of the victims of violence in institutions / of Vienna's youth welfare service in the postwar period. / From this site, the former child reception centre, / children were taken to homes and foster families, / in which they were exposed to appalling everyday educational practices / and institutional violence. / This dark side of history is a warning to us / in the present and a mandate for the future. /
