Stumbling Stones Albert-Schäffle-Straße 105

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Abraham Berenz (born 1937, murdered in Izbica)
Bela Berenz (born 1942, murdered in Izbica)
Erna Berenz (born 1912, murdered in Izbica)
Manasse Berenz (born 1937, murdered in Izbica)
Max Berenz (born 1898, murdered in Izbica)
Betty Grünberg (murdered in Theresienstadt on 7-9-1942)
Josef Grünberg (died on 25-1-1941)
Emil Nachmann
Hannchen Nachmann (murdered in Theresienstadt on 5-4-1944)

The small brass plaques, in the pavement in front of houses of which the (mostly Jewish) residents were murdered by the Nazis, mention the name, date of birth and place (mostly a concentration camp) and date of death.

In many other cities, 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.

For more information and pictures, please visit Stolpersteine Stuttgart (in German).
