Tour with Peter Gstettner at the Loibl (North) Concentration Camp Memorial Loibl Süd Concentration Camp Memorial

More than one thousand prisoners were brought to the Loibl Pass from the Mauthausen Concentration Camp from summer 1943 onwards to dig a road tunnel. Two concentration camps were built there; the south concentration camp (today located on Slovenian territory) and the north concentration camp on the Carinthian side of the pass. After twenty months of construction the 1,542 metre tunnel was opened for the first Wehrmacht vehicles to pass through. The Loibl Concentration Camp was cleared on 7 May 1945 and SS units took some 950 remaining prisoners through the Loibl valley. A day later partisans liberated the column of prisoners before it reached Klagenfurt. Following the clearance and plundering of the former concentration camp complex, all traces of the Loibl (North) concentration camp were wiped out. The grounds were handed over to private owners and used for forestry. After renovation work on the Loibl Tunnel was completed in 1964, the »Amicale de Mauthausen« foundation hung a small and inconspicuous memorial plaque at the entrance to the tunnel. In 1995 an initiative to have the former Loibl (North) Concentration Camp be put under a preservation order resulted in the installation of two large information and remembrance plaques and organized a remembrance ceremony which garnered wide public and international attention. Since 2003 the initiative has stepped up activities aimed at remembering the victims of National Socialist crimes at the Loibl Pass.

The memorial is situated on the Loibl Pass Road, about 1.5 kilometers after the southern entrance of the Loibl Tunnel (border crossing between Austria and Slovenia). The international monument lies to the left of the road, the former concentration camp site is on the right of the road; there are signposted parking spaces on both sides of the road.

The tour will take about 4 hours without a break; we start on the north side and then go to the south side. If bad weather, the hike will be shortened as a result. Recommended are warm clothing and good footwear.

Peršmanhof. On April 25, 1945, members of SS and Police Regiment 13 shot eleven members of a Slovene family in the Upper Austrian township of Bad Eisenkappel. The family lived on the remote Peršmanhof farm which was an important base for the partisan resistance against the National Socialist regime. Since 1981, there has been a small museum at Peršmanhof. In 1983, a memorial to the Carinthian partisans was set up in the property's forecourt.

At Peršmanhof we will have a hike with Zdravko Haderlap „in the footsteps of the resistance”; this hike will take 5 hours with break. The walking time will be 2 hours the other 3 hours will be time to talk. Recommended are warm clothing, good footwear and something to eat. After the hike we will have a break and time to eat or cook something an then we have the possibility to have a look in the museum Peršmanhof.

PRESENTATION: JAFARI S. ALLEN Black/Queer Here & There: An Ethnography of an Idea

In this presentation, I will provide some broad outlines of my new work-in-progress, Black/Queer Here and There: An Ethnography of an Idea. This new work seeks to re-narrativize the meaning and significance of Black desire for political empowerment or autonomy; for fun and carefree play in the face of social suffering; and erotic desire for one another. Black/Queer Here & There traces power and differential agency in the lives and works of Black gender non-conformists and sexual minorities across borders of geography, nationality, class, gender, sexuality and citizenship – examining a variety of subjective motivations, scenes and scales.

CV: Jafari S. Allen is Associate Professor of African American Studies and Anthropology at Yale University, and works at the intersections of [queer] sexuality, gender and blackness. Allen is the author of the critical ethnography “¡Venceremos?: The Erotics of Black Self-Making in Cuba“, and editor of “Black/Queer/Diaspora – a special issue of GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies“. www.jafariallen.com
