The Kristallnacht 1938 led to the persecution of the Jewish inhabitants , who have resided in Marl since 1910 . They worked mostly in the clothing trade or sold furniture . Several people were injured , their shops burned down and all 29 Jewish inhabitants had to leave the town . Most of them were deported to Riga and murdered . These incidents were documented by the German artist Gunter Demnig and his project " Stolpersteine " ( stumbling blocks )
