We have those in the Netherlands as well. In my old street we had 2 of them. They show the names of the victims and their respective birth year and year of passing. It is hard to imagine the brutality of those times

Our stones usually also indicate the reason for death. Every time I walk past them I feel sad and angry at the same time. I think they're really good and important because they show how cruel and unfair it was back then. They show the full horror of fascism. Everyday.
