Berlin artists Horst Hoheisel Andreas Knitz The Monument of the Grey Buses dedicated to the victims of the Nazis' “euthanasia” campaign in 1940/41. The memorial is based on the buses that brought victims to medical facilities, where they were murdered by gassing. One concrete bus is temporarily stationed at the address where the "Euthanasia-Organization T-4" office was located in Berlin, Tiergartenstrasse 4. The memorial is placed close to the Philharmonic Hall, and adjacent to a current city bus stop. One can walk into this concrete bus, which has a slice through its middle. According to a statement by the artists, “we not only want to raise a monument for the victims of the 'euthanasia'-murder, but also to reflect the deed and the perpetrators by using the grey buses, the tools of the perpetrators, as a 'means of transport' of memory.”
