Abstract

Since 1882, the annual congress of the German Society for Internal Medicine has been the most important place of remembrance for internists in the German-speaking countries. It is here where rituals are established and followed. Resistance against injustice was not part of the values espoused by this assembly. Until 1933, open anti-Semitism was almost absent in the DGIM as in many other medical societies; emphasis was placed on scientific work. But subsequently the apparently familiar and solidary character of the DGIM turned out to be a chimera. Its moral failure in the Nazi era came to light, and the place of memory in the sense of Tilman Robbes saw itself demystified. It was not until the turn of the 21st century that the historical consciousness gained center stage at this memorial site.
