Stumbling Stone Schwarzwaldstraße

This brass plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone), placed on June 23, 2022, commemorates:
* CRESZENTIA BLATTER (born 1911, admitted to Emmendingen Sanatorium in 1940, transferred to Grafeneck on September 23, 1940, where she was murdered as part of the "Action T4" program).

This Stolperstein lies here for a Jewish war victim, persecuted and murdered as part of Action T4 during World War II.

"Stolpersteine” is an art project for Europe by Gunter Demnig to commemorate victims of National Socialism (Nazism). Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the sidewalk in front of the last voluntary residence of (usually Jewish) victims of the Nazis. Each plaque is provided with the victim’s, date of birth, and fate. By doing this, Gunter Demnig gives an individual memorial to each victim. One stone, one name, one person. He cites the Talmud: “A human being is forgotten only when his or her name is forgotten.”
