Braunauer Zeitgeschichte-Tage

During those conferences several topics have been discussed, for example: coping with the past, resistance in dictatorships and other issues related to contemporary history.

Since 2004 the association for contemporary history aims to involve more topics related to the Innviertel-region and the bordering Bavaria.

Between 23 and 25 September 2005, the historical background of the Braunau Parliament of 1705 was analyzed, which united nobility, clergy, bourgeois and farmers under the slogan "Rather die Bavarian-like, than decaying in the Austrian way" (in German: "Lieber bayrisch sterben als österreichisch verderben") for a short period of time.

In 2006, the conference was devoted to Johann Philipp Palm, a bookseller from Nuremberg who was shot in Braunau on Napoleon's order in August 1806.
