How to use the material This post for social media is about the 'stumbling stones' in the Swedish city Malmö. Please make sure to name the photographer and the city of Malmö. The post can be used to commemorate the victims of the Holocaust on 27 January, International Holocaust Remembrance Day .
On 27 January 2025, it is 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz–Birkenau, the Nazi concentration and extermination camp in 1945
Captions 27 January is International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. It’s a day for everyone to remember the brutalities of the Holocaust, which killed around 6 million Jews and millions of others.
These brass plaques – called 'stumbling stones' or 'Stolpersteine' – were installed in Swedish city Malmö in 2022, in memory of Schulim Bürger, Walter Gerson and Siegfried Gutmann.
These three Jewish men all fled to Sweden by boat only to be deported, and they would all eventually be murdered in Nazi concentration camps.
German artist Gunter Demnig initiated stumbling stones in the early 1990s. Serving as physical reminders of the atrocities of the Holocaust, there are around 90,000 stumbling stones across Europe today, in nearly 2,000 cities.
The stumbling stones all bear the names and fates of Holocaust victims.
Today, it is 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz–Birkenau, the Nazi concentration and extermination camp where thousands of prisoners still remained in 1945. On 27 January 2000, the Stockholm Declaration was born. It is the founding document of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.
