As some background, I am taking a class on the history of the Holocaust. We are in the interwar years right now, and working on a project where we look at the life of average Jewish families before 1933. I found this picture and was curious to know more, as the caption implies they are emigrating into Berlin. I looked up the school and found this.At this place was from 1933 to 1939 the Jewish Theodor-Herzl-School, which was closed in 1939 by the National Socialists. In 1942 the school principal, Paula Fürst, was deported to Auschwitz and murdered.
