The first memorial stone was unveiled about a year after the crash, on 4.3.1967 by the Olympic Committee and the Italian swimming association near the crash site near the airfield. This original stele gives the names of a total of 9 Italian countrymen who died in an accident.

In 1991, this stele was moved a few hundred meters from its original location to its current location near Norderländer Straße.

On May 18, 2019, a second stele was unveiled at this memorial, with the name of all 46 victims of this accident.

Memorial to the plane crash on January 28, 1966 in Bremen.

With 46 fatalities (42 passengers + 4 crew members), this crash of a Lufthansa Convair CV-440 was the most serious air accident by Lufthansa after WWII.

Among the fatalities were 7 swimmers of the Italian Olympic team, their trainer and an Italian reporter who were invited to the 10th international swimming festival in Bremen.
