Stumbling Stones Schäfergasse 20

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Abraham Bruchfeld (born 1854, died on 13-10-1942)
Mathilde Gottschall (born 1865, died on 03-11-1943)
Hermann Gottschall (born 1860, died in 1942)
Rosel Ryczywol (born 1893, died in 1942)
Alice Ryczywol (born 1929, died in 1942)
, persecuted or murdered by the Nazis.

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 and villages, 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.
