Survivor Stories
The Holocaust was a profoundly tragic time in world history that resulted in the murder of six million Jews, of which an estimated 1.5 million were children. Another five million human beings were also killed, including Roma-Sinti people (“Gypsies”), political dissidents, communists, intellectuals, Jehovah Witnesses, homosexuals, Poles, and people with mental and physical disabilities.
Most Holocaust survivors alive today are over the age of 80. Local survivors’ stories cover a wide range of backgrounds and Holocaust experiences.
