Thes memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:

JOHANNA HULDA ALTMANN, rmurdered in Auschwitz
SALO ALTMANN, murdred in Theresienstadt
HENRIETTE AUERBACH, murdered in Treblinka
CHARLOTTE METZENBERG, murdred in Chelmno/Kulmhof
ELISABETH MOSES, murdered in Chelmno/Kulmhof
MARGARETE OLLENDORF, murdered in Auschwitz
PAUL PINKUS, rmurdered in Buchenwald
DR. ALFRED WALLER, rmurdered in Auschwitz

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

In many other cities, 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.
