Stumbling Stones Klinkerstraat 46

These brass memorial plaques (Stolpersteine or stumbling stones), placed on 25-01-2025, commemorate:

*DAVID BLOEMENDAAL (born 1871, murdered 14-5-1943 Sobibor)
*JOHANNA BLOEMENDAAL-RUHR (born 1877, murdered 14-5-1943 Sobibor)

These Stolpersteine lie here for Jewish war victims, persecuted, deported and/or murdered in World War II.
"Stolpersteine” is an art project for Europe by Gunter Demnig to commemorate victims of National Socialism (Nazism). Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the sidewalk in front of a 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.”
