Europanetzwerk Deutsch

After the November pogroms of 1938, thousands of Jews wanted to leave the German Reich as quickly as possible. However, entry regulations were very strict and some countries were only willing to accept children. Belgium was also prepared to grant residence to around 1,000 children. The children were transported to safety in 17 Kindertransports via Aachen and Herbesthal to Belgium - only temporary safety, as it turned out after the German occupation of Belgium in May 1940 at the latest. The exhibition presents almost unknown rescue stories and the extraordinary lives of the rescued boys and girls. Last but not least, it focuses on the great willingness of the Belgian population to help, to which many children owe their lives. In addition to visiting the exhibition, you will have the opportunity to talk to contemporary witness Adolphe Nysenholc from the association ‘L'enfant caché’.
