A Türkheimi / Bajorország / Volt Koncentracios-Tabor Magyar Foglyok Nevjegy[ze]ke [list of Hungarian prisoners in the ex-concentration camp Türkheimi, Bavaria]. [ca. 1945]. Hungarian.
Two leaves, typewritten and stenciled, with a list of names, dates of birth and towns of origin of ninety six Hungarian survivors from the Türkheimi forced labor camp. Twelve names were added to the list, one name is typewritten and eleven names are written by hand.
Türkheimi camp was one of fifteen "Kaufering" camps - small labor camps where Jews were employed in building underground factories. To hide the camps from the air, the prisoners were residing in pits with improvised roofs, with no light or heating, and were forced to work in extremely hard conditions. With the approach of the American army, the Germans started to destroy the camps, evacuate the prisoners and eliminate most of the evidence of their deeds.
2 leaves, approx. 29X20.5 cm. Fair-good condition. Folding marks. Long tears along the folding lines and several open tears (slightly affecting text). Creases to one leaf.
