These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Hertha Müller (born 1909, murdered in Minsk)
Paula Kaczar (born 1888, faith unknown)
Salomon Kaczar (born 1882, faith unknown)
Marianne Müller (born 1910, murdered in Minsk)
Otto Müller (born 1907, murdered in Minsk)
Sophie Müller (born 1882, murdered in Minsk)
Wilhelm Müller (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.
