according to a report by www.berlin.de ,

In April 2018, the path of memory was inaugurated as a sign of memory of the resistance to the Nazi dictatorship. The path leads through the Paul Hertz settlement, in which almost all streets are named after women and men of resistance. The Plötzensee memorial and the neighboring churches have been committed to the culture of remembrance and resistance to the Nazi dictatorship for many years.
