Franz Jägerstätter was born on 20 May 1907 in St. Radegund to a single farmer's maid. The loving upbringing of his grandmother, his poverty and religious readings shaped the adolescent. The fact that he strictly refused the second call-up by the National Socialists due to his religious beliefs made him a tragic national hero. He was sentenced to death for refusing military service and beheaded in Brandenburg/Mavel on 9 August 1943.
