DDR Heroes of Labor Shield – GDR Workers Tribute Plaque – East German Wall Decoration #9273

Product information "DDR Heroes of Labor Shield – GDR Workers Tribute Plaque – East German Wall Decoration #9273"

This decorative plaque bears the inscription “Heroes of Labor” along with the state emblem of the GDR, framed by the years 1949–1990. It symbolically honors the workers and citizens who contributed to the socialist vision of East Germany.

Motif:
“Heroes of Labor” DDR wall plaque with emblem and date span

Key Feature:
Nostalgic tribute to East German workers and socialist-era ideals of labor achievement

Time Period:
1949–1990 (duration of the German Democratic Republic)

Context:
“Hero of Labor” was an official title awarded in the GDR for outstanding performance in industry, agriculture, or public service. This plaque reinterprets that recognition as a decorative homage to the DDR’s working population.

Historical Background:
Work held a central role in the DDR's political and cultural identity. Public recognition through medals, titles, or plaques reinforced socialist values. While this shield is not an official award, it reflects the historical narrative and visual language of the era.
