Issued by Austria in 1979, this commemorative 4 Schilling stamp honors the 5. Europatreffen der Heimkehrer (5th European Meeting of Repatriates) held in Wels. The design features two prominent shields: the city emblem of Wels and the HVÖ (Heimkehrer- und Veteranenorganisation) crest, symbolized by barbed wire—representing former prisoners of war. The bold abstract motif and striking green-black palette reflect a solemn yet unified tone. Designed by A. Pilch, this stamp reflects Austria’s acknowledgment of post-war reconciliation.
