Rosa Haas
The Rosa Haas Stolperstein lies in a Stuttgart pavement, marking the place connected with a victim of Nazi persecution. A small concrete cube carries a handmade brass plate with Rosa Haas’s name and life dates.
German artist Gunter Demnig began the Stolpersteine project in 1992, placing each stone at the last freely chosen home, workplace, or study place of someone persecuted. The memorials remember Jewish people, Sinti and Roma, Poles, homosexuals, disabled people, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and others targeted by Nazi terror. More than 100,000 stones across Europe formed the world’s largest decentralised memorial by 2023.
The brass surface sits flush with the pavement, so a single name meets you within the ordinary movement of Stuttgart’s streets.
