Timeline
15:41
Grab a slice of Neapolitan pizza from Capra Sauerteig-Pizzeria. It is just a minute’s walk from the anchor and open until late, so you can grab it while it is still warm and fresh.
15:56
Walk to Apelstein 23 in the Karl-Heine-Straße. This is the memorial stone itself. Stand facing southwest to line up with the setting sun.
16:31
Watch the sunset at 16:31. The sun sets toward the southwest, casting a final glow on the stone and the surrounding Lindenau neighborhood.
16:51
End the walk at Café Westen for a hot drink. It is an eleven-minute walk away and stays open late in the evening, providing a warm place to reflect after the cold afternoon air.
Local tip
The walk between the pizza place and the memorial is very short, keeping you in the immediate vicinity of the Karl-Heine-Platz area. Café Westen is a reliable spot to stay warm afterward.
