Have you ever heard of a man named Moriz Seeler? Here at the Gedenktafel Moriz Seeler Plaque, we remember his life. The Gedenktafel Moriz Seeler Plaque marks the building where he lived from 1916 to the mid-1920s. He was a poet, writer, film producer, and man of the theatre. Born in 1896 in Greifenberg, Pomerania, he moved to Berlin at the young age of 15. The Gedenktafel Moriz Seeler Plaque serves as a poignant reminder of his contributions to Berlin’s cultural scene. He founded the Junge Bühne, an avant-garde theatre. He co-authored a libretto for a cabaret. He even co-founded a film production house and co-produced the film Menschen am Sonntag. This film offers a glimpse into life in Weimar-era Germany. The Gedenktafel Moriz Seeler Plaque stands as a testament to his creativity and passion. Tragically, Seeler’s vibrant life was cut short. He was deported to Riga, Latvia in August 1942. Upon arrival, he was executed, along with over 1,000 others, in the Rumbula or Bikernieki Forest. The Gedenktafel Moriz Seeler Plaque honors not only his artistic legacy but also serves as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of intolerance and hate.
