Zeitzeugin Isabelle
We met Isabelle in Budapest in 1999. This photograph was made in Budapest about one year before her deportation. About 1943.
She tells us:
“First of all, we had to go to ther ghetto, and from there to the Buda–Kalász brickyard. At the time, this was a collection point for Jews of the broader environs. There were thousands of people. I was there with my mother, my father, my grandmother, aunt, and my cousins. On July 9, 1944, we were “waggoned in” — direction Auschwitz.”
