Stumbling Stones Am Markt 6

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Rolf Meier (born 1921, murdered 8-11-1941in Minsk)
Leopold Meier (born 1893, murdered on 8-11-1941 in Minsk)
Therese Meier-Levin (born 1899, murdered on 8-11-1941 in Minsk)
Rita Meier (born 1926, fled 1940 to England)

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.
