Stumbling Stone Vorderer Bach 7

This brass plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone) commemorates:
* MARIA BRANDIS (born 1865, deported to Theresienstadt, died/murdered 23 January 1943)

This Stolperstein lies here for a Jewish war victim, persecuted, deported and murdered in 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.
