Stolpersteine in Zlín Region

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stolperstein in Kroměříž

The Stolpersteine in Zlín Region lists the Stolpersteine in the Zlín Region (Czech: Zlínský kraj) in the central-eastern part of Moravia. Stolpersteine is the German name for stumbling blocks collocated all over Europe by German artist Gunter Demnig. They remember the fate of the Nazi victims being murdered, deported, exiled or driven to suicide.

Generally, the stumbling blocks are posed in front of the building where the victims had their last self chosen residence. The name of the Stolpersteine in Czech is stolpersteine, or alternatively, kameny zmizelých, stones of the disappeared.

The lists are sortable; the basic order follows the alphabet according to the last name of the victim.
