List of stumbling blocks in Poland
The list of stumbling blocks in Poland contains the stumbling blocks in present-day Poland , which remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, displaced or driven to suicide in the country during the time of National Socialism . The stumbling blocks were laid by Gunter Demnig .
Stumbling blocks are usually laid in front of the victim's last freely chosen place of residence. The first installation in Poland took place on October 12, 2008 in Wrocław . The relocations for the members of the Zorek family in Wrocław were carried out on behalf of the descendants of this family, who came from the USA for the relocation. In Szczecin , Demnig gave a lecture on June 25, 2015. Stumbling blocks are called kamienie pamięci (stones of memory) in Polish .
Historical background
Poland is proportionately the hardest hit country by the crimes of the National Socialists :
- With the attack on Poland , the secret additional protocol to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact and the Soviet occupation of eastern Poland , the country temporarily disappeared from the map.
- With the massacre of Ciepielów on September 8, 1939, a series of war crimes by the Wehrmacht began in Poland, with the Przemyśl massacre by task forces of the Security Police and the SD from September 16 to 19, 1939, the Holocaust began in Poland. Between September 1 and October 25, 1939, over 16,000 civilians were executed by German forces, and around 60,000 Polish intellectuals, including 7,000 Jews, were murdered in and after the attack on Poland by the end of 1939.
- According to the official research from 2011, a total of 5.65 million Polish victims were recorded between 1939 and 1945. This includes almost three million Polish Jews, who were mostly victims of industrial extermination in the gas chambers , as well as 150,000 Poles who were killed during the Soviet occupation of eastern Poland.
- In the Polish territory occupied by the German Reich, the extermination camps Auschwitz-Birkenau , Belzec , Kulmhof , Majdanek , Sobibor and Treblinka were set up and used for the mass murder of Jewish women, children and men from all over Europe. In addition, thousands of Jews were in ghettos , etc. a. in Warsaw and Litzmannstadt killed by overcrowding, hunger, epidemics and shootings.
Stumbling blocks in Poland
The Demnig project in Poland is only just beginning, so far only 32 stumbling blocks have been laid in eight cities and towns - including two cities that were part of the so-called Altreich until 1945 . In part, Nazi victims of German origin and German citizenship were honored. This is in stark contrast to the Netherlands, where more than 6,500 stumbling blocks have been laid so far, to the Czech Republic, Italy, Austria, Norway and Hungary, where several hundred stumbling blocks have been laid each, but also to Belgium, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Spain and Greece. (As of July 2018)
Planned relocations in Łódź (April 30, 2014) and Gliwice (October 13, 2014) did not take place. In Łódź there was a discourse about the inscriptions.
Some of the tables can be sorted; the basic sorting is done alphabetically according to the family name.
Biała Podlaska
