Dorothea Stiefel née Hoexter,
commemoration stone March 2021
Dorothea Stiefel, geb. Hoexter
*09.03.1865 in Gmuenden
As a young widow with three children, Doro Stiefel came to Fulda at the end of the 19th century and lived at Rhoenstrasse 10.
On September 7, 1942, she was deported from Fulda to Theresienstadt. There she was murdered on December 20, 1942.
As student group, we would like to remember the murdered people in particular on their birthdays, starting in February 2021. With many victims we do not know when they were torn from life, but on a birthday we can think specifically of this one person and show him or her and the families that this person has not been forgotten.
For this reason we label a stone with the name and the birthday. Sometimes we’re even lucky enough to have a photo of the person so we can look into his and her eyes.
We do not forget you!
