Stumbling Stones Velperweg 99 (former Ernst Casimirlaan 19)

These brass plaques (Stolpersteine or stumbling stones), laid in September 2025, commemorate:
* MOSES ROOS (born 1896, murdered 14 August 1942 Auschwitz)
* EMMA SIMONS (born 1904, murdered 6 March 1944 Auschwitz)

These Stolpersteine are laid here for Jewish war victims who were persecuted, deported and murdered during the Second World War.

‘Stolpersteine’ is an art project in Europe by Gunter Demnig in memory of victims of National Socialism (Nazism).
Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the pavement in front of the former residences of (mostly Jewish) victims of the Nazis. Each plaque bears the name of the victim, their date of birth and their fate. In this way, Gunter Demnig gives each victim an individual memorial. One stone, one name, one person. He quotes the Talmud: ‘A person is only forgotten when their name is forgotten.’
