Aftermath
Meins' death sparked many protest actions across Europe, with many turning violent. It caused further hatred from the RAF's members. Jean-Paul Sartre's chauffeur for his meeting with Andreas Baader and later a militant also, Hans-Joachim Klein claimed to keep a picture of Holger Meins’ autopsy photo on him to reinforce his hatred for the West German “fascist” system.
Jean-Marie Straub's and Danièle Huillet's movie, Moses und Aron (1974), is dedicated to Holger Meins.
The RAF members who carried out the West German Embassy siege in Stockholm in 1975 named their group after him, with the purpose of commemoration.
In 2002, a documentary about Meins came out: Starbuck-Holger Meins, by Gerd Conradt.
