Around one year before, on 6 November 2008, the sculptor Josef Tabachnyk won a competition with this memorial. Tabachnyk’s entry won against three other competitors. The Culture Committee of the city of Nuremberg decided to invite a limited number of artists to participate in this competition on 4 June 2008.[3]

The financing of this memorial was achieved through three sponsors, Walter Metz (Initiator), Bruno Schnell (Publisher) and the PSD Bank. The city council of Nuremberg took over the building costs necessary for installing the sculpture at Willy Brandt Place, including costs for the sculpture's foundations.
