Stolpersteine Deutschland

Stolpersteine Deutschland is an app to commemorate people who must never be forgotten. In conjunction with the Stolpersteine memorial project, it digitally supports the culture of remembrance by combining publicly available data from Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap. The personal stories and fates are made accessible at the exact stone locations in Germany. Since its November 2022 launch, the database has grown from about 20,000 Stolpersteine to over 40,000 and is regularly updated.

The app emphasizes accessibility, aiming to be barrier-free and usable by people with significant visual impairments or limited motor skills. It was developed on our own initiative without tax or donation funding. Stolpersteine is described as the world's largest decentralized memorial; the project invites remembrance of Nazi-era victims, including those persecuted, murdered, deported, or expelled. The app covers many cities across Germany (as of April 2026).
