Stumbling Stones Cornelienstraße 1

These small brass plaques (Stolpersteine or stumbling stones), which were laid on April 26, 2010, commemorate:
Josef WINKLER (born 1893, referred to Lohr institution on 6-11-1935, transferred to Niederhart on 4-10-1940, murdered October 1940).
Mathias HAAB (born 1896, executed in Munich in 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.
