DES
NATIONALSOZIALISMUS
Darunter kleinere quadratische Tafel aus Bronze mit 12 Zeilen Erläuterungstext:
"Der »rosa Winkel« war das Zeichen, mit dem die Nationalsozialisten Homosexuelle in den Konzentrationslagern in diffamierender Weise kennzeichneten. Ab Januar 1933 wurden fast alle rund um den Nollendorfplatz verteilten homosexuellen Lokale von den Nationalsozialisten geschlossen oder zur Anlegung von »rosa Listen« (Homosexuellen-Karteien) durch Razzien missbraucht."

Davor ein Kranz, Blumenbuketts, 3 Schleifen weiß, lila bzw. rot, mit Texten. (2001)
English: Memorial at Underground station Nollenforfplatz, Berlin about the persecution of homosexuals during the epoch of Nazism.

Translation of the inscription on the point-down red marble triangle:
"Killed
Hushed up
To the homosexual victims
of Nazism"
Underneath a dark bronze square with 12 lines of explanation:
"The "pink triangle" was the sign the Nazis marked homosexuals in the concentration camps in a defamatory manner.

From January 1933 on all homosexual cafes around Nollendorplatz, Berlin were either closed or used during raids to make "pink files" (databases of homosexuals)."
