Stumbling Stones Daalerstraße

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Recha de Beer born Adler 1862
Rosa de Beer born Jacobs 1898
Daniel de Beer 1899
Karl de Beer 1903
Fritz de Beer 1936
Erika de Beer 1937

, 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.
