Most recently, the City of Frankfurt put up an information board next to the sarcophagus on which a pictogram is depicted and the following two websites are provided:

Gedenkorte-Frankfurt-Main.de

Frankfurt1933-1945.de

 

Both websites were created under the leadership of the Institut für Stadtgeschichte and are edited and added to continuously under scientific supervision.
