Lucie W. Holocaust testimony
Abstract
Videotape testimony of Lucie W., who was born in Bad Berleburg, Germany in 1924. This is a follow-up to her previous testimony recorded in 1980. She describes visiting Bad Berleburg for a series of events organized by the local residents to document and memorialize the Jews of the city, survivors, and those who were murdered during the Nazi period. She also relates her experience in RoĚddenau, her mother's birthplace (she had visited her grandmother there as a child on her grandmother's birthday). She was invited by the present population, who memorialized her maternal family's residence and history as the only Jews in that town, most of whom were murdered.
