Stumbling Stones Steinweg 16

These brass plaques (Stolpersteine or stumbling stones), placed on November 28, 2011, commemorate:
* HEINRICH ZEILBERGER (born 1891, placed in protective custody in 1933, abused by the SS in Dachau, fled to Palestine in 1937, survivor)
* LEO ZEILBERGER (born 1894, placed in protective custody in 1933, abused by the SS in Dachau, fled to Palestine in 1937, survivor)

These Stolpersteine lie here for Jewish victims, persecuted and abused but able to escape the Second World War.

"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 the last voluntary 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.”
