Remembering the Resistance: Hildesheim Commemorates Georg Schulze-Büttger

On July 20, 2027, the city of Hildesheim remembers the German resistance against National Socialism. The memorial event takes place at the grave of Hildesheim resistance fighter Georg Schulze-Büttger in the St. Lamberti cemetery.

A Quiet Place with Great Significance

The event connects local memory culture with nationwide remembrance of the resistance of July 20, 1944. In the serene atmosphere of the cemetery, the conscious remembering of people who stood against the National Socialist dictatorship is at the center.

Georg Schulze-Büttger and His Path to Resistance

Georg Schulze-Büttger was born in 1904 in Posen and grew up in Hildesheim. He attended the Andreanum Gymnasium and then pursued a military career. As an officer, he came into contact with regime-critical circles around Ludwig Beck and Henning von Tresckow.

After the failed assassination attempt on July 20, 1944, Schulze-Büttger was arrested. The People's Court sentenced him to death on October 13, 1944; he was executed in Berlin-Plötzensee the same day. His family grave at the Lambertifriedhof still commemorates his life and his resistance against the Nazi regime.
