The Memorial to Homosexuals Persecuted Under Nazism stands in the Tiergarten in Berlin, near the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset designed it. The Bundestag approved the memorial in 2003, and it was unveiled on May 27, 2008.
The memorial is a concrete cuboid. A window in the front shows a short film of two men kissing. The video changes every two years, and the article says it will also show women kissing.
The article does not state the dimensions or an architectural style, and it does not name a separate commissioner beyond the Bundestag's approval. The memorial sits near another Berlin memorial that honors the murdered Jews of Europe.
