I don’t think so.
A
Stolperstein (pronounced
[ˈʃtɔlpɐˌʃtaɪn] ⓘ; plural
Stolpersteine) is a ten-centimetre (3.9 in) concrete cube bearing a
brass plate inscribed with the name and life dates of victims of Nazi extermination or persecution.
Literally, it means 'stumbling stone' and metaphorically 'stumbling block'.
The
Stolpersteine project, initiated by the German artist
Gunter Demnig in 1992, aims to commemorate individuals at exactly the last place of residency – or, sometimes, work – which was freely chosen by the person before they fell victim to Nazi terror,
forced euthanasia,
eugenics, deportation to a
concentration or
extermination camp, or escaped persecution by emigration or suicide. As of June 2023, 100,000
[1] Stolpersteine have been laid, making the
Stolpersteineproject the world's largest decentralized memorial.

The majority of
Stolpersteine commemorate
Jewish victims of
the Holocaust.
