The list of stumbling blocks in Karlovy Vary contains the stumbling blocks in Karlovy Vary , the administrative center of the West Bohemian region of Karlovarský kraj . 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 initiated by Gunter Demnig , but today the Stolpersteine are also planned, laid and looked after by numerous local initiatives.
The Czech stumbling block project Stolpersteine.cz , which helped initiate the laying, was launched in 2008 by the Česká unie židovské mládeže (Czech Union of Jewish Youth); it has not been active since around 2016. The stumbling blocks are usually in front of the last self-chosen place of residence of the victim.
