NSU documentation center in Chemnitz remains

New sponsoring company to take over at the turn of the year

At the turn of the year, a new non-profit limited liability company is to become the sponsor of the institution, whose shareholders are the previous associations of the consortium. "With the spin-off, we are ensuring continuity in political education on the NSU complex," said Nora Krzywinski, one of the three previous directors of the center. The project is supported by the organizations ASA-FF, RAA Saxony and the Initiative Offene Gesellschaft.

Saxony was once the retreat of the far-right terrorist cell "National Socialist Underground" (NSU). The core trio from Thuringia lived here undisturbed for years, had numerous supporters and organized their series of murders of at least ten people - the victims were eight small business owners of Turkish origin, one of Greek origin and a policewoman. The trio is also responsible for a number of robberies and bomb attacks.
