    Details
    Pages: 29 + 62 pages : , handwritten manuscript, copies.
    Year of publication: 1944-1945
    Keywords: Bauer, Helene. ; Papanek, Frederike, ; Papanek, Joseph. ; Steiner, Grethe. ; Bergen-Belsen (Concentration camp) ; Theresienstadt (Concentration camp) ; Theresienstadt (Concentration camp) Intellectual life. ; Westerbork (Concentration camp) ; Forced labor. ; Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) ; Holocaust survivors. ; Women authors. ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: This memoir by Frederike Papanek was written for her children in a mixed style between diary and letter. She describes her internment at Westerbork, Bergen-Belsen, and Theresienstadt. Her first entry is dated from July 11, 1944. She describes work routine, conditions, and daily life in the before mentioned concentration camps. She was always hungry, and sometimes also quite sick. She spent some time knitting to earn extra money for bread, for her husband Joseph Papanek who was sick and desperate for food. She describes the awful conditions while being transported from camp to camp, without food, air to breathe, or light to see, put together with 61 other people in one wagon. Her husband died following such a transport. Theresienstadt is a nightmare with cynical islands of culture, concerts of works by Bach and Beethoven. Frederike Papanek writes about her daily life being concerned with her ill husband, visiting him, washing him, and bringing him food. On September 2, 1944, she is present when he passes away. In fall 1944, deportations start. She describes the last days of Theresienstadt, which she left on June 7, 1945. Her last entry is dated July 15, 1945. Attached is a translation into English.

The first entry dates from November 20, 1940, written in Gurs internment camp in France, and recollects the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany, and the effects on school children, businesses, cultural life etc. She herself was a witness to the burning of books. Her business had to be sold, and their goods were stolen. On October 21, 1940, all Jews were deported from Baden and the surrounding region to France. Rosa describes in detail when the Gestapo came to their apartment to arrest them. She was put on a train to Orleans, France, where she had to wait several days on the train until the internment camp in Gurs was set up for the new prisoners. She then describes the conditions and her experiences at Gurs in detail. At first, there were still some Spanish prisoners (Spanish Republicans). In February of 1941, her sister Bertha dies at Gurs. In October 1941, visas to get to the USA via Cuba arrive for Rosa and her family. They depart from Gurs on October 23, 1941, to Marseilles, where they board a ship in February (after many difficulties). On Rosa's last entry in her diary, dated from February 12, 1941, she decribes the trip on the ship which made stops at Casablanca, Morocco, and Bermuda, before arriving in Cuba. They were told to stay in Cuba until the end of the war.
