Stumbling Stones Eppendorfer Landstraße 30

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Dr. Paul Blumenthal (born 1880, murdered in Minsk)
Julius Cohn (born 1890, murdered in Chelmno in September 1942)
Gertrud Cohn (born 1890, murdered in Chelmno in September 1942)
Meta Müller (born 1883, murdered in Chelmno in May 1942)
Hermann Müller (born 1884, murdered in Lodz on 19-4-1942)
Erna Polak (born 1881, murdered in Minsk)
Moritz Polak (born 1875, murdered in Minsk)

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.
