Stolpersteine in Prague-Michle

Stolpersteine for Bedřich Fried­länder, Augusta Friedländerová and Matylda Mautnerová in Prag-Michle

The Stolpersteine in Prague-Michle lists the Stolpersteine in cadastral area Michle of Prague. Since 2002, the district belongs to Praha 4. 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: Kameny zmizelých, stones of the disappeared.

The list is sortable; the basic order follows the alphabet according to the last name of the victim.
