Stumbling Stones Veerpolderstraat 46

This brass plaque (Stolperstein or Stumbling Stone), laid on 26-09-2024, commemorates:

Alida Helena Frank-Bronkhorst (born 1876, murdered 14-01-1943 Auschwitz)

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

‘Stolpersteine’ is an art project in Europe by Gunter Demnig to commemorate 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 of the Nazis. Each plaque bears the victim's name, date of birth and their fate. 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.’
