Stumbling Stone Leonberger Straße 18

This brass memorial plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone), placed on dd-mm-jjjj, commemorates:
* LINA HELENE RICHTER-LAUPHEIMER (born 1875, deported 1942 to Theresienstadt, murdered 21-11-1943)

This Stolperstein lies here for a Jewish war victim, persecuted, deported and/or 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.”
