Stumbling Stones Humboldtstraße 10

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Elisabeth Schwabe (born 1892, murdered in Minsk)
Nina Idzkowska (born 1904, murdered in Minsk)
Henny Warschauer (born 1884, murdered in Minsk)
Kurt Warschauer (born 1924, murdered in Minsk)
Walter Warschauer (born 1921, murdered in Minsk)

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).
