List of stumbling blocks in Upper Austria

Stumbling blocks in the Weyer community remember six small children from the Roma and Sinti group who were killed by the Nazi regime.

The list of stumbling blocks in Upper Austria contains the stumbling blocks that were laid in the Austrian state of Upper Austria . Stumbling blocks remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide by the National Socialists . The stumbling blocks were designed and laid by Gunter Demnig . As a rule, they are in front of the victim's last self-chosen place of residence.

Only seven of the 31 stones laid concern the largest group of victims, people of Jewish faith or origin: three women from Wels and four members of the Baumann family in Aigen in the Mühlkreis . In addition, victims for political reasons, a number of murdered Roma and Sinti , a Jehovah's Witness and three representatives of the Catholic resistance were honored, including Franz Jägerstätter , who was later beatified .

One of the laid stones disappeared at an unknown point in time.

Some of the tables can be sorted; the basic sorting is done alphabetically according to the family name.
