Emilie Rosenthal
Emilie Rosenthal is a history spot in Neu-Ulm, Germany, linked to Stolpersteine for the Rosenthal family.
The memorial names Emilie, Emanuel, and their daughter Eva. Emilie was born in Isny in 1899 and moved with her family to Neu-Ulm in 1911.
She trained as an infant nurse during the First World War. After working in a mother’s home, Emilie spent four years in Milan before returning to Neu-Ulm.
She later moved to Berlin and married Emanuel Rosenthal there in 1931. The couple returned to Neu-Ulm after Emilie’s mother died, and their daughter Eva was born there in 1934.
In March 1940, Emilie and Eva fled to Milan, where they survived with assistance. Emanuel, born in Frankfurt in 1901, worked as a clerk in Ulm before fleeing to England in 1939.
He was interned on the Isle of Man, then worked in a munitions factory and as an accountant. The brass plaques belong to a decentralised memorial project by artist Gunter Demnig.
Each plaque carries a person’s name and life details, keeping individual histories visible in Neu-Ulm. This spot connects one family’s movements through Isny, Neu-Ulm, Berlin, Milan, and London with Holocaust remembrance.
