Stumbling Stone Place du Dr. Hollenfeltz 26

This brass memorial plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone, placed on 29-4-2019, commemorates:

* LUDWIG HOFFMANN (born 1903, arrested 15-8-1942, deported 1942, murdered in Auschwitz).

This Stolperstein lie here for a Jewish war victim, persecuted, deported and/or murdered in World War II.

Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the sidewalk in front of the last voluntary residence of (usually Jewish) victims of the Nazis. Each plaque is provided with the victim’s, date of birth, and fate. By doing this, Gunter Demnig gives an individual memorial to each victim. One stone, one name, one person. He cites the Talmud: “A human being is forgotten only when his or her name is forgotten.”
