The Supreme Court of Thuringia has upheld a ban on wearing keffiyehs at the Buchenwald concentration camp memorial site, rejecting an appeal from a woman who was denied entry for wearing the Palestinian symbol. The court stated that the memorial's management is allowed to prohibit such attire, citing concerns for the sense of security of Jewish visitors and the importance of preserving the memory of the Holocaust. The judges determined that, in this context, freedom of expression is secondary to the memorial's regulations, which require visitors to wear appropriate clothing. The decision is final and cannot be appealed, reinforcing the site's commitment to maintaining a respectful environment for remembrance.
