Stumbling Stone Leonberger Straße 32

This brass memorial plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone), placed on 27-9-2008, commemorates:
* ANTON REINHARDT (born 1921, forced labour in Ludwigsburg, deported in 1943 to Auschwitz, murdered on 27 December 1943)

This Stolperstein lies here for a Sinti war victim, persecuted, deported and murdered in 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 a known 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.”
