German cities are actively engaging in the installation and maintenance of ‘Stolpersteine’ (stumbling stones) to commemorate victims of National Socialism.

In Dresden, officials have defended the continued use of the memorial concept as a vital sign of remembrance for Holocaust and racism victims. Meanwhile, Magdeburg is proceeding with scheduled installations, involving relatives of victims traveling from Germany and the United States to honor those persecuted for religion, political views, sexual orientation, or disabilities.

In Lüneburg, local authorities are working to replace two memorial stones that were stolen during road construction. These stones, which honored victims of Nazi ‘euthanasia’ programs, are expected to be reinstalled at their original locations following an estimated eight-week delivery period from the manufacturer.
