Stolperstein für Curt Lebrecht

Stolperstein für Curt Lebrecht is a small brass-plated stone set into the pavement in Ulm. It commemorates Curt Lebrecht. The stone belongs to the Stolpersteine project, which places personal memorials across Europe for people persecuted and murdered during the Holocaust. Curt belonged to the Lebrecht family. In Ulm, the family ran a leather-goods business and performed as the Lebrecht Quartet. Wilhelm Lebrecht, the father, played the viola. The family left Ulm to escape Nazi persecution, abandoning their home and business. Their story connects one pavement marker with Ulm’s cultural and commercial history. This history spot keeps Curt Lebrecht’s name visible in the city. The stone also recalls Jewish families whose lives, work and artistic contributions shaped Ulm before persecution forced them away. Walkers encounter a personal memorial rather than an anonymous historical reference, because the name Curt Lebrecht remains at its centre. Its brass surface marks a place of remembrance within the everyday pavement.
