Living
in Camp-Wildflecken Janie's Memories |
Part 1 |
 In
April 1945, Camp-Wildflecken was turned into a camp for thousands of
people who were displaced by the war. Feliksa and Hipolit S. arrived
from Erfurt, where they had worked in a labor camp. |
 Buildings
that once were occupied by the "Wehrmacht" and the "elite
Waffen-SS" were now being used to accommodate the refugees.
|
 |
 |
|
Five buildings were converted into hospitals. One was used only for maternity care. |
 |
 "Adolf-Hitler-Platz"
became "Eisenhower-Place" |
 In
February 1946, Kazimira was born. She was a sickly infant, and was given
medication under the supervision of the UNRRA. She died in October 1946.
She is burried at the Polish Cemetery (Polenfriedhof) along with 427
other children. The cemetery is located south of the camp. |
