Summary

Description
Deutsch: Hagen-Wehringhausen, Grünstraße 35 vor dem Krankenhaus. Stolperstein für Gerda Ov(b)erbeck (* 1921; † 23.06.1939). Gerda wohnte in der Neubraunaustraße 5 (heute Albrechtstraße, Cuno-Siedlung). Die junge Frau wurde angeblich wegen „angeborenen Schwachsinns“ 1939 im Hagener Krankenhaus von den Nazis zwangssterilisiert und starb an den Folgen des Eingriffs. Als ihr Termin dafür feststand, schrieb Gerda einen Brief an Hitler persönlich, in dem sie um Gnade bat. Daraufhin bekam der Amtsarzt die Aufforderung die Sterilisation so zeitnah wie möglich durchzuführen. Nachdem das 18-jährige Mädchen nicht freiwillig zu dem Termin erschienen war, führte die Polizei Gerda von ihrem Arbeitsplatz wie eine Schwerkriminelle ab. Sie starb an den Folgen der Operation. Als Todesursache wurde eine schwere Lungenentzündung angegeben.
