Stumbling Stones Färbergasse 5

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Philipp Adler (born 1865, murdered in Auschwitz)
Ludwig Adler (born 1892, murdered in Auschwitz)
Alice Adler (born 1900, murdered in Auschwitz)
Lotte Eva Adler (born 1926, murdered in Auschwitz)
Ludwig Marum (born 1882, murdered in Kislau on 29-3-1934)

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.

For more information and pictures, please visit Stolpersteine Frankenthal (in German).
