Stolpersteine in the Banská Bystrica Region

Stolperstein for Jeremias Krämer in Fiľakovo

Stolpersteine is the German name for stumbling blocks collocated all over Europe by German artist Gunter Demnig. They remember the fate of the victims of Nazi Germany being murdered, deported, exiled or driven to suicide. The first Stolperstein collocations in the Banskobystrický kraj, the Banská Bystrica Region of present-day Slovakia (formerly Czechoslovakia), took place in Banská Bystrica and in Brezno on 31 October 2012.

The inscriptions in Fiľakovo and Tornaľa are in both Hungarian and Slovak as there both languages are spoken. Generally, the stumbling blocks are posed in front of the building where the victims had their last self chosen residence. The name of the Stolpersteine in Slovak is pamätné kamene, memorial stones, in Hungarian botlatókő, stumbling stones.

The lists are sortable; the basic order follows the alphabet according to the last name of the victim.
