Stumbling Stones Dorpsstraat 77

These small brass plaques (Stolpersteine or trip stones), commemorate:

FRIEDRICH ADLER, in hiding here, born 1910, arrested 10-6-1944, murdered 15-12-1944 in Dachau.
ELISABETH-ADLER-DEN HARTOG, born 1917, arrested 10-6-1944, murdered January 1945 in Auschwitz.*
* According to other information she perished in central Europe on 28-2-1945.

These Stolpersteine are here for Jewish war victims, persecuted, deported and murdered in World War II.

‘Stolpersteine’ is an art project in Europe by Gunter Demnig commemorating victims of National Socialism (Nazism).
Stolpersteine (trip stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the pavement in front of a residence of (mostly Jewish) victims murdered by the Nazis. Each plaque bears the victim's name, year of birth and place (usually a Concentration Camp) and date of death. In this way, Gunter Demnig gives an individual memorial to each victim. One stone, one name, one person. He quotes the Talmud: ‘A person is forgotten only when his or her name is forgotten.’
