The commemoration of 13 February 1945 – 2011 by Michael Geiss

The commemoration of 13 February 1945 remembers the air raids on Dresden in February 1945 that killed up to 25,000 people.

In 2011, a commemoration ceremony was also held in Dresden, which was then abused by neo-Nazis, who had travelled from all over Germany, for their propaganda on Saturday 19 February 2011.

Only a strong police presence was able to prevent the neo-Nazis and Antifa from meetingand in 2023? Same procedure as every year!

Thousands of people have formed a human chain around the city of Dresden to protest against a far-right march on the 66th anniversary of the Allied bombing of the city during World War II. (13.02.2011)
