Excerpt (in translation): The Holocaust in Norway: Norway was occupied by German troops from April 9, 1940 to May 8, 1945. At that time, there were around 2,100 Jewish Norwegians and refugees from Central Europe in the country. Of these, around a thousand people managed to escape to neutral and unoccupied Sweden. Immediately after the invasion of German troops, hate campaigns against Jews and Aryanization began in Norway. The Jews in the country were gradually robbed of all their belongings. The first mass arrests took place in late autumn 1942. On November 26, 1942, the Norwegian police and Gestapo handed over 532 Norwegian Jews (302 men, 188 women and 42 children) to the SS. They arrived in Stettin on a North German Lloyd cargo ship, the Donau, and were deported from there to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. 346 of them,(Submitted on July 9, 2024.)including all the women and children, were murdered in the gas chambers immediately after their arrival on December 1, 1942. 186 men survived the selection and were tattooed with the numbers 79064 to 79249. Only nine of them survived the Shoah. On February 25, another 158 Jews were shipped to Stettin on the Gotenland and taken via Berlin to Auschwitz. 28 men were classified as fit for work, the others were murdered immediately. This happened on March 3, 1943.Photographed by Andrew Ruppenstein, July 8, 20242. Mauritz Bernstein Stolperstein - wide viewThe marker is visible here set in the sidewalk in front of his former home.
