List of stumbling blocks in the Cologne district of Mülheim
The list of the stumbling blocks in Cologne's Mülheim leads by artist Gunter Demnig laid stumbling blocks in the Cologne district of Muelheim 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 it is no longer possible to comprehend a complete description of your life and your 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.
