To counteract oblivion. Pope John Paul II. ( 1920—2005 ) initiated a comprehensive reappraisal of the Christian victims of violence in the 20th century. The German Bishops' Conference took up this idea and asked the author of this article to compile the German Martyrology, together with 170 experts. The two-volume magnum opus “Witnesses for Christ. The German Martyrology of the 20th Century“ is available since 2019 in its seventh revised and updated edition.
