Stumbling blocks in Neukölln: Laying for the Michaelis family on November 15, 2023 at 12:45 p.m. in Friedelstraße 7.

according to a report by www.berlin.de , on Wednesday, November 15, 2023 moved to Friedelstraße 7 in Neukölln to remind you of the Jewish family Michaelis. The family lived here until 1941, before becoming a victim of persecution during the National Socialism period. Willy, Paula and Lothar Michaelis were arrested on February 27, 1943 and deported to Auschwitz, where they never returned.

The history of the Michaelis family is a sad testimony to persecution of Jews during National Socialism. It illustrates the cruel effects of the Holocaust, which were also noticeable in Berlin. The laying of the stumbling blocks serves as an important memory of the victims and is intended to help keep their history alive.

The opportunity to donate stumbling blocks offers citizens the opportunity to actively participate in the culture of remembrance and to preserve the history of the persecuted. By combining local history and personal commitment, stumbling blocks can help to raise awareness of the darkest chapters of the past and to keep the memory of the victims awake. Interested parties can contact the Museum Neukölln to obtain further information and support the relocation of a stumbling block.
