Stumbling Stones Bachstraße 75

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Sophie Berney (born 1874, murdered in Minsk)
Bernd Lustgarten (born 1936, murdered in Minsk)
Edith Lustgarten (born 1935, murdered in Minsk)
Ilse Lustgarten (born 1907, murdered in Minsk)
Rosa Lustgarten (born 1881, murdered in Minsk)
Ruth Lustgarten (born 1932, murdered in Minsk)
Wolf Lustgarten (born 1900, murdered in Minsk)

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).
