Pink Triangle Park & Memorial

This is actually in San Francisco, not Austin—just a heads up. That said, the Pink Triangle Memorial is a powerful open-air tribute at Castro and Market Streets honoring LGBT victims persecuted during the Nazi era, with 15 granite pylons and a rose quartz triangle among pink rose bushes. You can visit anytime to pay respects and take a stone as a remembrance, and it's free to access this historically significant landmark that transformed the pink triangle from a symbol of persecution into one of pride and resilience.
