Stumbling Stones Wrangelstraße 32

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Hella Bielefeld (born 1938, murdered in Minsk)
Kurt Bielefeld (born 1913, murdered in Minsk)
Marion Bielefeld (born 1918, murdered in Minsk)
Mathel Bielefeld (born 1941, 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.
