Stumbling Stones Clevenstraße 7

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Benjamin Horn
Carl Horn
Elfriede Horn
Irene Horn
Joseph Horn
Martha Horn
Walter Horn
Werner Horn
Alice Willner
Bertha Willner
Ernst Willner
Helmut Willner
, persecuted or murdered by the Nazis.

The small brass plaques of 10 by 10 cm, in the pavement in front of houses of which the (mostly Jewish) residents were persecuted or murdered by the Nazis, mention the name, date of birth and place (mostly a concentration camp) and date of death.

In many other cities and villages, mainly in Germany but also in other European countries, the memorials also can be found. There are already many thousands of these plaques and their number is still counting. Almost all Stolpersteine are laid by the German artist himself, Gunter Demnig.
