Stumbling Stones Annenstraße 61

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Adolf Schlumper (born 1920, murdered)
Josef Schlumper (born 1921, murdered on 3-1-1942)
Karl Schlumper (born 1885, murdered on 15-12-1941)
Rosa Schlumper (born 1892, murdered)
Samuel Schlumper (born 1923, murdered)

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.
