Stumbling Stones Benediktusgarten 9

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Ludwig Müller (born 1887, faith unknown)
Klara Müller (born 1897, faith unknown)
Ruth Müller (born 1929, faith unknown)
Fritz Müller (born 1925, murdered in Majdanek)

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.
