Stolperstein dedicated to Ernst Samson, Memorial brass stone in Herbern, Ascheberg, Germany.
This Stolperstein is a small brass plaque set into the pavement outside Bernhardstraße 28. It bears engraved information about the name, birth date, and fate of the person it commemorates.
Ernst Samson is commemorated by this stone at his last documented address in Herbern. The Stolperstein was laid as part of Gunter Demnig's project, which since 1992 has placed brass plaques at the last chosen residences of Nazi victims. The inscription records Samson's name, birth date and fate, so that passers-by encounter his story at the spot where he lived.
This memorial stone is part of a European network that remembers people affected by Nazi persecution. Visitors stop and reflect on the personal stories these stones tell as they walk through the streets.
The stone is located on a street in Herbern and is accessible to visitors exploring the area. It helps to walk slowly and look down to spot the plaque among the pavement stones.
Each stone is individually crafted by artist Gunter Demnig and personally installed at documented locations. This hands-on approach makes every stone a personal tribute.
