Summary[edit]

Description
English: The ceremony was celebrated with many Germans in attendance as well as Armenian friars of the Mekhitarist Order. About this Margaret Lavinia Anderson states: "In May 1919, St. Hedwig’s Catholic cathedral, in the heart of Berlin, hosted a standing-room-only memorial for the Armenian people, attended by Germans, Armenians, foreign delegations, and an official representative of the German government. The invitation itself, from the German-Armenian Society, implied that the genocide had always been an open secret: “As is well known, during the World War more than a million Armenians, on orders of the Turkish government, were massacred or deported to the desert.” Conceding that their countrymen did not feel directly responsible, the sponsors stated flatly that, because of its Turkish alliance, Germany’s share in this wrong was greater than that of any other people."
