Stumbling Stones Neuer Markt 4

These memorial stones (so called Stolpersteine or stumbling blocks) commemorate:
David Hermann Grundmann (born 1864, murdered in Theresienstadt)
Ella Grundmann (born 1886, murdered in Lodz)
Elsbeth (Else) Grundmann (born 1876, murdered in Theresienstadt)
Selma Emma Grundmann (born 1870, murdered in Theresienstadt)
Tonie Grundmann (born 1890, murdered in Lodz)
, persecuted or murdered by the Nazis.

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 and villages, 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.
