Robert-Scholl-Platz stands in historic Ulm, where several streets meet and the square carries Robert Scholl’s name. Robert Scholl served as Ulm’s first post-war mayor. American occupiers appointed him, and he contributed to democratic renewal and reconstruction in Ulm after the Second World War. Hans and Sophie Scholl were Robert Scholl’s children. They belonged to the White Rose resistance group, which opposed the Nazi regime in Germany. The city council chose Robert Scholl’s name for the plaza. A redesign added green space and reduced parking, creating a more pedestrian-friendly setting among historic streets. Teatro International performed street theatre at the inauguration. Family members, including grandchildren and great-grandchildren, joined local dignitaries for the ceremony at Robert-Scholl-Platz. The square connects Robert Scholl’s memory with Ulm’s changing urban landscape. Its setting brings post-war civic history and public-space redesign together in central Ulm. Several historic streets converge around the square.
