    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.
