The Only Surviving Album of Auschwitz





The Only Surviving Album of Auschwitz

This is the story of a Hungarian Jewish woman who survived Auschwitz
and found a coat belonging to a guard which she took to shield her from the
cold immediately after her liberation. In the pocket of this coat she found
a photo album. It contained pictures of what went on in this extermination
camp. Imagine her reaction when she saw a picture of herself coming off of
the train as well pictures of her family who were already murdered. This
album at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem was donated by this woman in 1980 and will
forever be displayed there. When you have 5 minutes of peace and quiet in
front of your computer, watch it and consider passing it around to people
that you know so they can share it and know about it. It is truly moving
and important.
