Outrage as East German town bans Holocaust 'stumbling blocks'

Original: Outrage as East German town bans Holocaust ‘stumbling blocks’

A small town in eastern Germany has banned the installation of new 'stumbling stones' — the brass memorial plaques set into pavements to mark the last known homes or workplaces of Jews and other victims of the Nazis. The decision has drawn widespread condemnation, with critics accusing local authorities of dishonouring Holocaust victims as Germany prepares to mark remembrance of Nazi crimes.

Why now: The town's ban on Holocaust memorial plaques has sparked public outrage and renewed debate about how Germany commemorates Nazi crimes.
