Stumbling Stones Innocentiastraße 37

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Fritz Weinstein (born 1869, murdered in Minsk)
Prof. Friedrich Adler (born 1878, murdered in Auschwitz)
Zerline Adler (born 1872, faith unknown)
Kaethe Pincus (born 1899, murdered in Lodz on 13-8-1942)
Martin Pincus (born 1889, murdered in Lodz on 1-6-1942)
Gertrud Weinstein (born 1884, 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.
