GedenkStätte Weisse Rose (Memorial to the White Rose Resistance Group) Review

Siblings Hans and Sophie Scholl, fellow students Alexander Schmorell and Christian Probst, and Kurt Huber, professor of philosophy, founded the short-lived resistance movement against the Nazis in 1942-43 known as the Weisse Rose (White Rose). All were executed by guillotine. A small exhibition about their work is in the inner quad of the university, where the Scholls were caught distributing leaflets and denounced by the janitor.
