To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Auschwitz extinction camp’s liberation on January 27th, 1945, descendants of Jewish internees will join the panel to share their family histories and talk about their often difficult research into their ancestors’ fate following their deportation from Cologne. Most members of Elana Broch’s family from Cologne were murdered in Auschwitz, while Yuval Ehrenreich only recently discovered that his step-grandfather had survived and returned to Germany after the war.
