List of stumbling blocks in Prague-Holešovice

Stumbling block for Otto Goldstein and Frantisek Lauser in Prague-Holešovice

The list of stumbling blocks in Prague-Holešovice contains the stumbling blocks that were laid in the Holešovice district of Prague until 1960 Holešovice-Bubny ([ˈɦolɛʃovɪtsɛ], German Holleschowitz boys ). Today, the district is largely part of Prague 7 , a smaller part is in Prague 1 . Stumbling blocks remind of the fate of the people who were murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide by the National Socialists in the Czech Republic. The stumbling blocks were laid by Gunter Demnig .

The Czech stumbling block project Stolpersteine.cz was launched in 2008 by the Česká unie židovské mládeže (Czech Union of Jewish Youth) and was under the patronage of the Prague Mayor. The stumbling blocks lie in front of the last self-chosen place of residence of the victim. The stumbling blocks are to Czech stumbling blocks called alternatively kameny zmizelých (stones of the disappeared).

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