Stumbling Stones Fliederstraße 41b

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Metha Eppenstein (born 1881, murdered in Minsk)
Manfred Eppenstein (born 1910, murdered in Minsk)
Adolf Reifer (born 1923, faith unknown)
Ester Reifer (born 1894, faith unknown)
Judas Reifer (born 1889, faith unknown)
Spandla Reifer (born 1921, faith unknown)
Herbert Sprei (born 1920, murdered in Sachsenhausen on 26-10-1942)

The small brass plaques, in the pavement in front of houses of which the (mostly Jewish) residents were persecuted or 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 Bremen (in German).
