List of stumbling blocks in Hohen Neuendorf

Stumbling blocks for the Rosenthal family

The list of stumbling blocks in Hohen Neuendorf contains the stumbling blocks that were laid in the town of Hohen Neuendorf . Stumbling blocks remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide by the National Socialists . The Stolpersteine ​​were designed by the Cologne artist Gunter Demnig and are usually laid by himself.

The stumbling blocks are usually in front of the last self-chosen place of residence of the victim.

The stumbling blocks in Hohen Neuendorf are laid by the history circle of the Hohen Neuendorf cultural area. The project is called “Stolpersteine ​​for Hohen Neuendorf”. The impetus was an article published in 1996 by the poet Jürgen Rennert , in which he discussed the leveling of the grave of Dr. Hugo Rosenthal excited as well as the fate of the Hohen Neuendorf-based family Reinhold Meyer, son of a Jewish literature professor and art collector and grandson of one of the founders of Deutsche Bank. When the stumbling blocks for the Rosenthal family were laid in 2011, Rennert said: “With the three stumbling blocks that are coming into the pavement today, I won't take a stone off my heart. There is an event that can neither be ameliorated nor redeemed. "

In 2010 the first stones were laid in the city.
