Benannt nach Nazi-Vordenker: Gehört dieser Weidener Straßenname geändert?

Seit den 1970ern ist eine Straße in Weiden nach dem NS-Verbrecher und Nobelpreisträger Johannes Stark benannt. Immer wieder flammten Debatten um deren Umbenennung auf. Nun einigte sich der Stadtrat auf eine Änderung – im Kleingedruckten.

von Florian Bindl

Im Weidener Gewerbegebiet "Pfreimter Weiher" liegt die Dr.-Johann-Stark-Straße". Ihr Namensgeber, der Nobelpreisträger Johannes Stark, war überzeugter Nationalsozialist und judenfeindlicher Ideologe.
