Memorial Events:

In the early morning hours of November 20, 1941 the Gestapo sent almost 1,000 people from the Freight train station at Milbertshofen in Munich to Kaunas in Lithuania, because according to the racist definition of the National Socialists they were considered “Jewish.” Just a few days after their arrival at Kaunas’ Ninth Fort, on November 25th, they were murdered by the SS and their accomplices in the Einsatzgruppen. 

Under the pressure of growing disenfranchisement and marginalization many Jewish residents had already left  Munich and Germany. Then on November 20, 1941 a large part of the the Jewish community of Munich was lost in one fell swoop— nearly a quarter of their remaining members. Subsequently around 3,400 Jews from Munich were deported to Kaunas, Piaski, Theresienstadt and Auschwitz.

About a third of them came from Swabia and Upper Bavaria. Very few survived the Shoah.

This event commemorates the 80th anniversary of the first deportation to east.
