Stumbling Stones Schulze-Delitzsch-Straße 6

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Bertha Ochs (born 1891, died on 25-11-1942)
Max Ochs (born 1889, died on 25-11-1942)
Edgar Ochs (born 1924, died on 25-11-1942)
Irmgard Ochs (born 1923, died on 25-11-1942)

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.
