List of stumbling blocks in Cologne's Ehrenfeld district
The list of the stumbling blocks in the Ehrenfeld district of Cologne leads the artist Gunter Demnig laid stumbling blocks in the Cologne district of Ehrenfeld on.
The list of stumbling blocks is based on the data and research of the NS Documentation Center of the City of Cologne , partially supplemented by information and comments from Wikipedia articles and external sources. The aim of the art project is to document biographical details of the people who had their (last) voluntarily chosen residence in Cologne in order to preserve their memory.
- Note: In many cases, however, it is no longer possible to comprehend a complete description of their life and their path of suffering. In particular, the circumstances of her death can often no longer be researched. Official death notices from ghettos, detention centers, hospitals and concentration camps can often contain information that conceals the true circumstances of death, but are also documented taking this fact into account.
- The coordinates can differ in individual cases.

Sömmeringstrasse 57 ( location ) |
The stumbling block is reminiscent of the Jewish hairdresser Moritz Spiro , born on January 8, 1887.
On the afternoon of the day after the November pogroms in 1938 , around 5:00 p.m., the windows of his hairdressing business were thrown in and his business was devastated. In an attempt to protect his business, Moritz Spiro was brutally suppressed by the attackers. Moritz Spiro was brought to the Israelite asylum by his wife Erna , where he underwent emergency surgery. Moritz Spiro died on November 18, 1938 as a result of severe head injuries. The perpetrator, the office assistant Norbert Hoffmann ( NSDAP member number 876.840) was not prosecuted on the grounds in the investigation file that “the investigation did not reveal any evidence that the act was based on selfish motives” . The preliminary investigation was discontinued with the decree of the Reich Minister of Justice (IIIg10b 1621 / 38g) on October 2, 1940. Erna Spiro and their son Erich were deported to the Litzmannstadt ghetto in October 1941 . From there, she was deported to the Kulmhof extermination camp in May 1942 , where she was murdered. The further fate of Erich Spiro is unknown. Moritz Spiro's grave is located in the Jewish cemetery in Cologne-Bocklemünd (Hall 20A No. 320) |
