Stumbling Stones Amalienstraße 2

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Dr. Ferdinand Lebermann (born 1899, suicide on 7-10-1938)
Emma Lebermann (born 1901, murdered in Izbica in 1942)
Jettchen Lebermann (born 1907, murdered in Auschwitz in 1944)
Leopold Lebermann (born 1868, murdered in Theresienstadt on 20-11-1942)
Stefanie Lebermann (born 1908, faith unknown)

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.
