Acquisition

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Theresa Latosh

Theresa Latosh donated her mother's family's collection to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in April 2011.

Scope and Content

Consists of an enlarged commemorative photograph of Schwarzburg, Germany, in the shape of a heart, as part of the materials from the post-war experiences of the Kozler family, originally of Kryłów, Poland. The Kozlers, a Catholic Polish family, were separated when Stanislaw was sent into Germany for forced labor. The rest of the family was later sent to a forced labor camp near Schwarzburg and reunited with Stanislaw right before being liberated by the American military. The family lived at a displaced persons camp near Coburg until 1949, when they immigrated to the United States.
