Stumbling Stone Franz-Ludwig-Straße 24

This brass plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone) commemorates:
* LEOPOLD LINDNER (born 1902, transferred to St. Getreu sanatorium in 1937, then Eglfing/Haar sanatorium, transferred to Hartheim/Linz in 1940, murdered in 1940)

This Stolperstein lies here for a victim murdered during World War II due to illness.

"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.”
