Leo Lehmann, commemoration stone April 2021
Leo Lehmann
*07.04.1890 in Regensburg
Leo Lehmann was married to Anna and lived at Heinrichstrasse 15.
On November 10, 1938, he was arrested during Crystal Night and deported to Buchenwald. After his release and the failed escape to another country, he was deported from Fulda to Riga on December 8, 1941, together with his wife and three little children.
Leo Lehmann was murdered in June 1942 in Salaspils.
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!
