Good luck. In Austria we have hundreds of streets named after Nazi collaborators, but there's a huge resistance to changing the names. Same when someone wants to remove a statue placed by Nazis.

When commemorative plaques are placed for victims of Nazi violence, they are defaced or destroyed.

There are a lot of people who just don't want to hear that our ancestors weren't all that noble.
