Stumbling Stones Johannisstraße 67

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Frieda Isenberg (born 1894, murdered in Sobibor on 23-4-1943)
Hans-Günther Isenberg (born 1913, faith unknown)
Sophie Isenberg (born 1915, murdered in Auschwitz on 23-4-1943)
Rosalie Oberschützky (born 1862, murdered in Theresienstadt on 20-11-1942)

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.
