“Deeply shocked” memorials set up for Navalny in Oberland. “He was a figurehead,” says Wolfratshauserin Angela Mauss-Hanke.

With candles, flowers and a picture of Navalny, she would like to give citizens the opportunity to think of the man who died at the age of 47 behind the walls of a prison camp in northern Siberia. ‘I still have a few candles when the others are burned out,’ she admits.
