The Stolpersteine in Rome lists the Stolpersteine in Rome, the capital of Italy. Stolpersteine is the German name for stumbling blocks collocated all over Europe by German artist Gunter Demnig. They remember the fate of the Nazi victims being murdered, deported, exiled or driven to suicide.

Generally, the stumbling blocks are posed in front of the building where the victims had their last self chosen residence. Rome was the first city in Italy, where Stolpersteine were collocated. This occurred in January of 2010. Since then, 249 have been posed in Rome. (May 2017) The name of the Stolpersteine in Italian is: pierre d'inciampo.

The list is sortable; the basic order follows the alphabet according to the last name of the victim.
