List of stumbling blocks in Hirschaid

This list of stumbling blocks in Hirschaid contains the stumbling blocks that were laid by Gunter Demnig in the Upper Franconian market in Hirschaid as part of the art project of the same name . A brass plaque is anchored on the top of each of the concrete blocks with an edge length of ten centimeters, which are embedded in the sidewalks in front of the former homes of the victims. This provides information about the names, year of birth and fate of the people who are to be remembered.

The first stumbling blocks in Hirschaid were set on April 25, 2013 together with a major laying campaign in Bamberg, and another was added on September 12, 2013. Up to and including November 29, 2014 there were seven stumbling blocks in Hirschaid, the laying of which was prepared and supported by the Willy-Aron- Gesellschaft Bamberg. The last two stumbling blocks so far were relocated on October 17, 2017 in the Sassanfahrt district .
