On this day 31 May 1919, revolutionary socialist Rosa Luxemburg’s body was found and identified after an autopsy at the Charité hospital in Berlin. It was five months after she was murdered and thrown into Berlin’s Landwehr Canal by the right-wing paramilitary Freikorps who were acting on behalf of the Social Democratic government, suppressing the German revolution.
