Stumbling Stones Uhlandstraße 50

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Esther Frümet Gawrylowicz (born 1883, murdered)
Tscharka Grynblatt (born 1876, murdered)
Benzijan Grynblatt (born 1866, murdered)
Frieda Ruth Schoen (born 1924, murdered in Auschwitz)
Johanna Schoen (born 1888, murdered in Auschwitz)
Rebecka Stark (born 1932, murdered)
Breindel Rena Stark (born 1891, murdered)
Aron Stark (born 1889, murdered in Dachau on 12-4-1941)

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.

For more information and pictures, please visit Stolpersteine Frankfurt am Main (in German).
