Stumbling Stones Emsteker Straße 21

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Simon Jacobs (born 1896, murdered in Zamosc)
Julchen Jacobs (born 1905, murdered in Zamosc)
Josef Jacobs (born 1929, murdered in Zamosc)
Max Jacobs (born 1930, murdered in Zamosc)
Beate Jacobs (born 1935, murdered in Zamosc)
, 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.
