Facts and practical information

The Ulrichsberg gathering is an Austrian German nationalist organisation founded in Klagenfurt in 1953 to memorialise Carinthian soldiers in World War I, the Austro-Slovene conflict in Carinthia, and World War II. Its full name is Ulrichsberggemeinschaft / Heimkehrer- und Europagedenkstätte : this indicates, first, the annual meeting of war veterans and their families which it organises at Ulrichsberg mountain near Klagenfurt; and, second, the war memorials to returning soldiers which it maintains on the Ulrichsberg and in Klagenfurt. The organisation is considered a meeting ground of far-right extremists and unrepentant Nazis, such as former members of the Waffen-SS. ()
