Since 2008 this memorial has trained the spotlight on the enormous suffering of Europe’s LGBT community under the Nazis. The freestanding, 4m-high, off-kilter concrete cube was designed by Danish-Norwegian artists Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset. Through a warped, narrow window, you can espy a looped video featuring a same-sex couple.
