List of stumbling blocks in the province of Asti

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of the stumbling blocks in the province of Asti contains the stumbling blocks in the Italian province of Asti , reminiscent of the fate of the people of this province, by the Nazis murdered, deported, expelled or were driven to suicide. The Stolpersteine ​​( Italian pietre d'inciampo ) were laid by Gunter Demnig .

The stumbling blocks are usually in front of the victim's last self-chosen place of residence, but in Moncalvo in the former ghetto. The first relocation in this province took place in January 2020.

The table is partially sortable; the basic sorting is done alphabetically according to the family name.
