Stumbling Stones Feldstraße 27

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Herbert Conu (born 1934, murdered in Minsk)
Berta Alexander (born 1914, murdered in Minsk)
Erich Alexander (born 1904, murdered in Minsk)
Frieda Ostro (born 1881, murdered in Treblinka)
Samuel Ostro (born 1876, murdered in Treblinka)

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 Bremen (in German).
