Walls of dissatisfaction: CDU headquarters in Göttingen again attacked!

Reinhäuser Landstraße, Göttingen, Deutschland - A violent incident caused excitement in Göttingen. In the night from June 15th to June 16, 2025, unknown persons bridged the main entrance of the CDU headquarters in Reinhäuser Landstrasse. On the arrival of the police, which was alerted by an employee of the CDU at 8:10 a.m., an approximately 1.50 meter high wall of ytong stones was found, which was easy to collapse. Apparently a little cement was used to build the wall, which impaired their stability. The investigation has already been taken over by the state security, and both banners attached, one with the inscription "closed" and another that criticized the "war loop and racist foreclosure policy" were confiscated by the police.

CDU member of the Bundestag Fritz Güntzler was horrified by this incident and emphasized the need for democratic disputes instead of taking such drastic measures. The young Union, which is behind the CDU, also sees clear responsibility in the left -wing extremist scene. The district chair Julian Ehbrecht followed and criticized the protest as anti-democratic. The Junge Union also calls for a clear political commitment to left -wing extremist intimidation methods. The incident is not the first of this kind; Already in February the house of the Göttingen Union had become the destination of color attacks.

politically motivated crime in the upward trend

This incident is part of a worrying development. According to the Federal Criminal Police Office, politically motivated crimes in Germany rose by 40.2 percent compared to the previous year. This can be traced back to social polarization and the climate of fear, which is reinforced by various social conflicts. More than half of all registered acts are now right -motivated, which underlines the explosive situation. Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt has already announced a "security offensive" that provides for more powers for security authorities to counteract development. However, this initiative was also criticized by advice centers that pointed out that racist motifs are often not recognized, which leads to a distorted position.

The crime statistics show an increase in almost all areas of politically motivated crimes. The particularly striking increase in anti-Semitic crimes by over 95 percent and the explosion-like increase in the context of the Middle East conflict by over 7,000 percent are alarming. At the same time, there was also a decline in the Corona protest acts, which in the past often came up with the political debate. This development makes it clear how important it is to proceed against extremism in all its forms.

The incident in Göttingen is another example of the burgeoning extremism in society. The local actors, including the CDU and its youth organization, are now calling for a clear public statement against these tendencies, but also increased efforts to secure democratic values ​​in Germany.

For Göttingen itself, the question arises as to how the city and politics will react to such attacking actions as a whole. It remains to be seen whether this will lead to a rethink in the political landscape in order to prevent such attacks in the future
