Stumbling Stones Lange Gasse 29

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Else Friedmann (born 1892, escaped)
Helene Friedmann (born 1898, escaped)
Hildegard Friedmann (born 1916, escaped)
Karl Friedmann (born 1903, escaped)
Max Friedmann (born 1901, murdered in Auschwitz)
Rosa Friedmann (born 1883, murdered)
Siegfried Friedmann (born 1889, escaped)

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.
