The Angel of Peace in Mannheim is a memorial for the victims of Nazi Germany and the Second World War, which was created in 1951/52 by the sculptor Gerhard Marcks. The statues other names are Mannheimer Engel and Angel of Death; the locals call the sculpture Die schepp' Liesel .
In August 1949, the Union of Persecutees of the Nazi Regime applied for a memorial plaque to commemorate the resistance fighter, Lechleiter, and those executed with him at Georg-Lechleiter-Platz. In the course of the debate on the motion, the circle of victims of Nazi mentioned on the commemorative plaque was extended to include all those who were persecuted for political, religious or racial reasons, those imprisoned in concentration camps, those deported from Mannheim and those that died elsewhere. This was approved by the VVN.
