Stumbling Stones Geestemünder Straße 22

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine of stumbling blocks) commemorate:
Levi Abt (born 1876, murdered in Theresienstadt on 6-8-1943)
Friederike Anspacher (born 1892, murdered in Minsk)
Rosemarie Anspacher (born 1926, murdered in Minsk)
Minna Arends (born 1868, murdered in Theresienstadt on 29-3-1944)
Emma Baumgarten (born 1881, murdered in Auschwitz in 1944)
Margin Oliver (born 1879, murdered in Auschwitz in 1944)

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.
