日期：2025年6月14日

介绍

参观位于德国卡尔斯鲁厄的、为纪念内森·西蒙（Nathan Simon）而设立的“绊脚石”（Stolperstein），是深入了解这座城市层叠的犹太历史和受难者个人故事的有意义方式。“绊脚石”是嵌入人行道上的小黄铜牌匾，位于受害者最后自由选择的住所或工作地点前。该项目由艺术家京特·德姆尼格（Gunter Demnig）于 20 世纪 90 年代初发起，已成为世界上最大的基层犹太人大屠杀纪念倡议，截至 2025 年¹，已在欧洲安装了超过 10 万块石碑（Stolpersteine Guide、Germany.info）。卡尔斯鲁厄自 2005 年以来一直积极参与“绊脚石”项目，纪念犹太公民、政治异见者和其他受迫害群体。内森·西蒙的“绊脚石”位于 Kaiserstraße 201 号，深刻地邀请人们反思这座城市的犹太遗产以及纳粹迫害造成的毁灭性影响（ka.stadtwiki.net）。

本指南为游客提供全面信息，包括历史背景、文化意义、实际参观细节以及如何尊重地参与纪念活动的指导。它还重点介绍了附近的がhistorische 遗址和致力于维系记忆和教育的社区倡议。无论您是历史爱好者、教育工作者还是旅行者，本指南都旨在加深您对卡尔斯鲁厄致力于犹太大屠杀记忆的理解（bnn.de、pragueviews.com）。

“绊脚石”项目：起源和理念

“绊脚石”项目由京特·德姆尼格（Gunter Demnig）发起，旨在将纳粹受害者的记忆引入日常生活。每一块“绊脚石”都是一块 10 x 10 厘米的黄铜牌匾，嵌入在受害者最后一处自由选择的住所或工作地点前的人行道上，上面刻有他们的姓名、出生日期、遭遇以及（如果已知）死亡日期和地点（Germany.info）。“绊脚石”这个词指的是停下来，反思脚下故事的象征性行为。这种去中心化的纪念方式将城市街道变成了与日常生活交织在一起的活体纪念碑（ka.stadtwiki.net）。

在欧洲和德国的推广和规模

自成立以来，“绊脚石”项目已成为世界上最大的去中心化犹太大屠杀纪念碑。截至 2025 年¹，已在 31 个欧洲国家的 1100 多个地点铺设了超过 10 万块石碑（stolpersteine.eu）。该项目不仅纪念犹太受害者，还纪念辛提人和罗姆人、政治异见者、LGBTQ+ 人士、残疾人以及其他受纳粹政权迫害的群体（ka.stadtwiki.net）。

卡尔斯鲁厄的“绊脚石”

介绍和发展

卡尔斯鲁厄于 2005 年加入“绊脚石”项目，截至 2025 年¹¹，已在全市 61 个地点安装了近 300 块石碑（stadtwiki Karlsruhe）。受害者包括犹太人、辛提人和罗姆人、政治异见者、耶和华见证人以及其他人士。该项目得到了卡尔斯鲁厄城市历史促进协会¹（Förderverein Karlsruher Stadtgeschichte e.V.）等组织、学校和市政府的大力支持（stolpersteine-karlsruhe.jimdofree.com）。

社区参与和教育

社区参与是卡尔斯鲁厄“绊脚石”项目的核心。像 Kant-Gymnasium 这样的学校将受害者研究纳入课程，培养学生的同理心和意识（ka-news.de）。安装仪式通常由受害者后代、官员和公众参加，包括朗诵和反思¹¹。

内森·西蒙：他的生平与命运

生平背景

内森·西蒙（Nathan Simon）¹¹于 1872 年 10 月 11 日出生于黑森州的 Pohl-Göns²。1911 年，他与妻子宝拉（ née Haas）³搬到卡尔斯鲁厄，并在 Kaiserstraße 创立了“Schuhhaus Simon”¹¹¹（gedenkbuch.karlsruhe.de）。家人¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹³¹¹¹¹³³¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹³¹¹¹¹¹³¹¹1¹¹became well-integrated into local society and rebuilt their business after World War I.
