Hedwig Bluth
Hedwig Bluth is a Stolperstein in Germany, set flush with the pavement at walkway level. A square brass plate spans about ten centimetres. Engraved letters preserve her name and basic life details, inviting a closer look among ordinary paving stones.
Born in 1860 as Hedwig Guttmann, Hedwig Bluth belonged to the Jewish community persecuted and murdered under National Socialist rule. The memorial belongs to a European art and remembrance project that began in the 1990s. Stolpersteine mark the last freely chosen residences of people persecuted or murdered under that regime. Nearby stones recall members of the former Jewish community, which existed there until 1942. The brass catches the light between paving stones.
