It was organised by the "Jewish Welcome Service" in September 2000. This trip brings forgotten memories back to life, questioning the role of Austrians in the Holocaust, and their denial afterwards. The author describes the trip, first days of sightseeing and conversations of his fellow travellers. On the last day, the group went to Zentralfreidhof, the main cemetery in Vienna.
    Abstract: The memoir "Delusions and Denials: Viennese Life under the Nazis" starts with a description of the author's family and an essay-like reflection about Austria and its role and engagement with Nazism, and soon turns to the author's own childhood in Vienna, presenting his personal memories in context of the political situation in the 1930s. In the main part of the memoir, Fireside talks at length about the immediate events leading to the "Anschluss", followed by its consecutive years, still being in Vienna. "Kristallnacht", the pogrom in November of 1938, is dealt with in detail, over 15 pages. Until their escape in April 1940, Fireside describes plenty incidents of humiliations and persecution, the process of getting affidavits for the USA, and finally his family boarding a ship in Italy and their arrival in the USA.

    Abstract: Max Liebmann describes his school life and how unbearable conditions grew after Hitler was elected chancellor. One time a pupil harassed him, but he fought back. He stayed in public school until 1937, and then attended a private school. He had to leave school after “Kristallnacht”, when all Jews were excluded from non-Jewish schools. In March 1938, his father had left for Greece in order to explore new business possibilities. Max Liebmann never saw him again. With the outbreak of World War II, Max Liebmann took his grandmother, who was French Alsatian, to the Swiss border. But Switzerland did not permit her to enter the country, so she went to Nancy and later to Bordeaux. During the war discrimination increased and culminated in Max Liebmann being sent to Eastern Germany to harvest. He describes himself as one of the first slave laborers of the Reich. In 1940, Max Liebmann started to work for the “Hilfsverein”. On October 21, 1940, the “Hilfsverein” was closed and he was deported to France the next day. On October, 25, Max Liebmann arrived at the camp of Gurs in Southwestern France. He managed to get out of the camp just weeks before its closure on August 1, 1942, and the beginning of the first deportations to Auschwitz. He hid in several places in unoccupied France with the help of local residents. He later managed to escape to Switzerland with the help of a Swiss militia man. In Switzerland, he worked in a refugee camp. On February 28, 1943, his girlfriend Hanne, whom he had met in Gurs, came to Switzerland. She first lived with relatives, but left them on Christmas Eve 1944 when personal frictions became too heavy. Max Liebmann married Hanne on April 14, 1945 in Geneva. Their daughter was born on March 4, 1946. In 1948, the family left for the United States.
    Abstract: Max Liebmann ends his memoir with giving a few remarks on Swiss policy concerning Jewish immigration and also on their policy of blocking them from their money in Swiss bank accounts.

    Abstract: The memoir was written in Israel in the 1990s. Phillippe Storch's father Baruch was born 1887 in Galicia. He came to Hannover at age 13 and started his own business in 1907. His ready-made men's clothing had great success and expanded within the years. He met his future wife Deborah, née Horowitz in Hannover, where she had moved with her father from Galicia. They married in 1912. Phillippe was the youngest of four children. His father Baruch, an orthodox Jew, was a strict but a just and kind-hearted man. He was a fervent German patriot and an admirer of German culture, which left him blind folded to the events of the Nazi era and ultimately led to his end in Auschwitz. The children were brought up with German education. Phillippe's older brother Sally was a member of Agudat Yisroel and prepared himself for emigration to Palestine (hakhsharah), which their father strongly opposed. Despite the anti-Jewish boycott the business still continued to do well until 1938. With the "Kristallnacht" on November 9th 1938 things deteriorated rapidly. The family, who had been granted German citizenship, became stateless. During "Kristallnacht" the entire apartment and their shop were devastated. In 1939 Phillippe joined a children's transport to the Netherlands. 1940 the Germans entered the Netherlands. Phillippe's brother Sally and his sister Martha crossed the border illegally to Belgium, where Sally contracted TB and died shortly after the Germans entered the country. Through the help of the "Resistence" Phillippe was reunited with his sister and mother in Antwerp, Belgium. They managed to get to Southern France, where their mother died of exhaustion. Through adventurous circumstances Phillippe managed to cross the border to Switzerland together with his sister and her husband.
    Abstract: He was taken to a military camp near Zurich. It was in poor conditions, but they had a rich cultural life due to many famous inmates such as the singer Josef Schmidt and the writer Manes Sperber.

    Abstract: In his memoir, Joseph Ripp decribes "some of the events that drove them out of Europe and brought them to safety in the United States". He describes the fate of each family member, and their later lives in the United States. Then Joseph Ripp focuses on the time of persecution thorugh the Nazis. In school they were taught the discriminatory racial doctrines, in the outside world his father's business suffered from all different kinds of assaults on his property. It became clear that they had to emigrate. In 1938, young Joseph could take part in a small program sponsered by the American Jewish community which enabld a few hundred children from Germany to escape. He was about to end up in St. Paul, Minnesota. Before that, they made a stop in New York, where he stayed with his aunt Bertha Geller. He describes how impressed he was by all the new things he got to see in New York. After his arrival, he took on several jobs to help his family survive the struggles of war. The memoir moves back to Nazi-Germany and its persecution of Jews. There is an account of Kristallnight and Joseph Ripp's brothers' escape to Holland and England. His parents are dispersed over Europe, his father being held at St. Cyprien internment camp in France, his mother stuck in Antwerp, Belgium. Finally there is a family re-union in the USA. Joesph Ripp then writes about his family's fate in the US. He joins the army and combats in Europe. He receives education from Columbia University, and then meets his future wife, Mimi, a refugee child as well. Both go back to Europe in the 1950s. Joseph Ripp accepted a job offer in Brussels, Belgium, from his wife's uncle. The memoir closes with the upbringing of the next generation. There are several family photos and documents included in the appendix.

    Abstract: This memoir was written for a Holocaust Survivors' Webpage for people who went to Hunter College High School, New York City, NY. Lisa F. Barclay's memoir is short and concise. She talks briefly about her family's background and her childhood in pre-war Vienna. The "Anschluss" of Austria to Nazi Germany in March 1938 changed everything. The family was forced to emigrate. Her parents were a mixed couple - the father Jewish, the mother a Catholic. They got help from a number of Catholic friends, which gave them a few more options than a Jewish family. They got the US affidavit through an American relative, but had to wait long for the actual visas, since her father was born in Hungary and therefore considered under the quota for Hungarian citizens. After leaving Austria in 1938, they temporarliy lived in Paris, France, and Lisbon, Portugal. The memoir ends with a description of the living conditions after their arrival in New York.

    Abstract: The memoir was written in 1988 in Berlin, Germany. The author describes his childhood in a protestant environment in Freiburg. Helmut Krueger had only sporadic contact to his wide-spread Jewish relatives. His mother Camilla was born in Vienna, where she started her training as an actress with Ferdinand Gregori. Her parents were the Jewish lithograph Eduard Ezechiel Joseph Davidson from Den Haag and Rebecca Stern from Hungary. Helmut's father Max Krueger was a theater director in Konstanz, Muenster and Freiburg. His parents met in Muenster, where both of them were engaged in theater productions. They married in 1912. Max Helmut was born in 1913, Answald in 1918 and in 1923 their sister Brigitte. In 1923 Max Krueger was offered a position in Freiburg, where the family lived until 1932. Rising political tensions in the 1930s. With Hitler's take-over in 1933 his father was forced to resign from his position. Helmut was arrested due to his affiliation to the communist party. His mother decided to convert to Protestantism in order to protect her family. Move to Berlin. With difficulties Helmut continued his interrupted studies at the Technical University in Charlottenburg, Berlin. Increasing persecution of "non-Aryans" and life between hope and despair. Answald and Brigitte were expelled from school due to their "non-Aryan" heritage. Brigitte found refuge in a Swedish Protestant church, where she worked as a secretary and escaped persecution. Terror of the November Pogrom of 1938 in Berlin. Helmut graduated from university in 1939 and was enlisted in the German army. His brother Answald and Helmut were able to remain in the army until 1941. In this way they hoped to be able to protect their family.
    Abstract: After his dismissal as "non-Aryan" Helmut worked as a construction manager of subway bunkers in Berlin and Brest. Increasing difficulties in his position. In 1942 his fiance Hertha was expecting a child. Due to his heritage they were not able to legalize their relationship and lived together under restricted circumstances. Their child Christine Gabriele was born in November 1942. Helmut found an apartment for his mother in the outskirts of Berlin, where he hoped she would be able to remain undiscovered. In 1944 she was denounced and deported to Theresienstadt. In 1945 Answald and Helmut were taken to a forced labor camp for "Organization Todt". Liberation and interrogation by the Americans.
