    Abstract: The author describes her childhood memories as a child of a Christian journalist and a mother from a well-to-do Jewish family. Margit Korge's parents got divorced in 1935. At the age of 7 she was taken to a Catholic boarding school. Her mother immigrated to the United States and left her daughter in the care of the nuns of the order "Our dear Lady" (Unserer lieben Frau). Margit's grandparents, the textile merchants Anita and Salomon Kalman paid for her education. The boarding school was located in an exclusive villa and hosted children of the high society. Margit was fascinated by the rituals of the Catholic surroundings. The nuns showed a loving care and made efforts to integrate her in an environment alien to her. At the same time restriction of her strong desire for independence through firm rules and distanced relationships in the nunnery. Estrangement from her classmates due to her mixed heritage. Last encounters with her maternal grandparents prior to their deportation. Growing danger and Gestapo investigations. In 1942 she had to leave the boarding school and lived without legal permission at her paternal grandparents. In 1944 she was taken to Brambach, where she survived the war in hiding.
