The honors are classified as "problematic" in 2022/23 due to Albin Lesky's involvement in National Socialism. Lesky was already involved in the German national-ethnic association "Südmark" in the 1920s. He was a party member from December 15, 1938 (as was his wife Erna Lesky). He was involved in "Aktion Ritterbusch" (wartime use of the humanities in Nazi war propaganda, aimed at selection, deportation and genocide).
