Response to Abuse Allegations: Dornbirn Renames Hermann-Gmeiner-Park

In light of the abuse allegations against SOS Children's Villages founder Hermann Gmeiner, the city of Dornbirn will rename the public places named after him.

A park and the Hermann-Gmeiner-Weg in the Bergparzelle Knie are affected. The abuse of children is "particularly reprehensible, and it cannot be that public spaces in Dornbirn remind us of it," it was stated in a release on Monday. A working group will deal with alternative names.
