The place of learning and remembrance is dedicated to the victims of National Socialism and fascism in the district of Ried im Innkreis and is an extension of the exhibition on the history of the town at the Innviertler Volkskundehaus museum. The initiative for this project came from the ARGE Lern- und Gedenkort.

The basis is the publication "National Socialism in the district of Ried im Innkreis. Resistance and Persecution 1938 - 1945" by Gottfried Gansinger, supplemented by research by ARGE members.

Charlotte Taitl (born 15 May 1896 in Thomasroith/Ottnang - died 16 October 1944 in Auschwitz) is one of the 196 known victims of National Socialism and fascism in the district of Ried. The aim was to give the victims back their names and thus rescue them from oblivion.

The dates and life stories of 26 victims are told on biographical steles. An information box at the end of the room contains all the information about National Socialism and the period before and after in the district of Ried. Further in-depth information can be accessed via a touchscreen, and there is also a workstation with a PC and internet access for research work.

The Charlotte-Taitl-Haus learning and memorial centre is an inclusive exhibition with equal access to information for everyone. New technologies are used to obtain information through oral history interviews, historical audio documents, sign language and QR code accessible easy-to-read texts.
