The typhoid memorial commemorates the doctor, who died of typhus in Wriezen in 1946. Nobutsugu Koyenuma. Dr. Also honor Koyenuma with a street name. The city decided in favor of the Steuerstraße because the street leads past the monument exactly to the town hall, where the typhus station was housed after the war, which Dr. Koyenuma had directed before his death.
Now in winter, the memorial and the memorial plaque are enclosed to protect them from the weather.

The memorial was created in 2000 by the Japanese sculptor Tatsuhika and the German Axel Anklam.
It is intended to remind us of humanity, as the Japanese doctor Dr. Nobutsugu sacrificed himself here for typhus sufferers after the Second World War and died of the disease himself in 1946.
