Ulrichsberg gathering
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ulrichsberg gathering (German: Ulrichsberggemeinschaft) is an Austrian German nationalist organisation founded in Klagenfurt in 1953 to memorialise Carinthian soldiers in World War I, the Austro-Slovene conflict in Carinthia, and World War II. Its full name is Ulrichsberggemeinschaft / Heimkehrer- und Europagedenkstätte ("Ulrichsberg gathering / Returning soldiers' and Europe memorial"): this indicates, first, the annual meeting of war veterans and their families which it organises at Ulrichsberg mountain [de] near Klagenfurt; and, second, the war memorials to returning soldiers (Heimkehrer) which it maintains on the Ulrichsberg and in Klagenfurt. The organisation is considered a meeting ground of far-right extremists and unrepentant Nazis, such as former members of the Waffen-SS.
