Stumbling Stones Barfüßertor 15b

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Hugo Moses (born 1887, murdered in Sobibor)
Siegfried Fritz Moses (born 1891, murdered in Majdanek on 23-6-1942)
Ludwig Moses (born 1899, murdered in Sobibor)
Rosa Seligmann (born 1883, murdered in Sobibor)

The small brass plaques, in the pavement in front of houses of which the (mostly Jewish) residents were persecuted or 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.
