Jakob Weinberg, commemoration stone March 2021
Jakob Weinberg
*31.03.1883 in Hünfeld
Jakob Weinberg moved from Wuestensachsen with his wife and son to Johannisstrasse 14 in September 1938.
On November 10, 1938, he was arrested during Kristallnacht and deported to Buchenwald.
On December 8, 1941 he was deported from Fulda to Riga and murdered in March 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!
