Stumbling Stones Wallufer Straße 13

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Clara Stern (born 1867, murdered in Theresienstadt on 12-6-1943)
Paula Stern (born 1868, murdered in Theresienstadt on 4-2-1943)
Emmy Feldheim (born 1870, murdered in Theresienstadt on 19-2-1943)
Louis Rappoport (born 1873, murdered in Theresienstadt on 29-5-1944)

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.
