Stumbling Stones Bolongarostraße 128

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Margot Freudenthal (born 1901, murdered in Kaunas on 25-11-1941)
Betty Freudenthal (born 1928, murdered in Kaunas on 25-11-1941)
Julius Freudenthal (born 1900, murdered in Kaunas on 25-11-1941)
Nanette Kahn (born 1896, murdered in Chelmno)
Ludwig Louis Kahn (born 1891, murdered in Chelmno)

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).
