Stumbling Stones Sally-Ehrlich-Straße 10

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Hermann Ehrlich (born 1882, escaped)
Max Ehrlich (born 1888, escaped)
Sali Altmann (born 1869, survived Theresienstadt)
Israel Altmann (born 1866, murdered in Theresienstadt on 26-12-1942)
Sally Ehrlich (born 1878, murdered in Izbica)

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.
