Abstract:
Krag traces the fate of her paternal grandfather, Jakob Abraham Rosenstrauch, in the Holocaust. Rosenstrauch was born in 1892 in Tarnopol, studied in Germany, and settled in Vienna in 1914. In November 1938 he was sent to Dachau, but was released in April 1939, having received a visa to Uruguay. The visa proved to be false and Rosenstrauch was left with no other choice than to join a group of Jewish pioneers heading for Palestine on the Kladovo-Transport. After two years on a boat and on the road, most of the transport's members were shot by the Wehrmacht in Zasavica in Serbia. Rosenstrauch was one of the victims of the October 1941 massacre. Reconstructs the story of the Kladovo-Transport and discusses reactions of Krag's family members to Rosenstrauch's story, which they gradually learned about.
