Description
After the Shoah, unique region-based associations of Jewish survivors emerged, primarily in Israel but also in other countries. Despite their significant influence on community life and their diverse activities, these associations have received little scholarly attention.Survivors from Leipzig first founded the Leipziger Jews Benevolent Association in New York, which was active in the 1940s and 1950s. This was followed in 1953 by the "Association of Former Leipziger in Israel" (Verband ehemaliger Leipziger in Israel).This publication presents, for the first time, the key figures in these Associations and their contributions to commemorating the victims. Among other things, it highlights the old age home (Elternheim) they established, the news bulletin (Mitteilungsblatt) they published, and other extensive social and remembrance-related activities.
