Guided Story
Imagine being caught in a time where every choice could mean life or death. Henriette Sauer faced that very reality, and right beneath your feet, her memory lives on. These Stolpersteine, small brass plaques, are silent voices from the past. They speak of a life cut short by the horrors of the Nazi era. Look to your left and picture how this place might have looked back then, filled with fear and despair. Yet today, amidst our modern world, we pause to remember and honor her. You might even hear the leaves rustling in the nearby Pestalozzipark, as if whispering Henriette's story.
