Stolperstein für Rosa Lebrecht

The Stolperstein für Rosa Lebrecht is a memorial stone in Ulm, connected to the wider Stolpersteine project. This memorial commemorates Rosa Lebrecht in the city of Ulm. Stolpersteine are small, cobblestone-sized memorials placed before the last freely chosen residences of people persecuted in the Holocaust. Each stone bears a name and life dates. Rosa Lebrecht belonged to a persecuted family, while her husband Wilhelm manufactured leather goods and played the viola. Wilhelm made leather goods and played the viola. Together with their four sons, Rosa and Wilhelm were known as the Lebrecht Quartet in Ulm. The family fled the Nazis and left Ulm behind. The stone connects one family’s history with Holocaust persecution and remembrance in Ulm. Other Stolpersteine in Ulm mark individual stories of loss and remembrance. The wider project places personal memorials in pavement, keeping names visible within ordinary streets and neighbourhoods. Rosa Lebrecht’s stone joins a name, a family, and a specific Ulm place.
