United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Mali Fenigstein

Donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 1996 by Mali Fenigstein.

Scope and Content

Documents relate to Dr. Heinrich Fenigstein's role as a camp doctor at the Hessental labor camp. One document identifies him as such, giving him permission to leave the camp between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on official business, and the other gives him authority to purchase medication in his duties. Both are signed by the camp commandant.
