The road that Sally (Franz Korwan)
Katzenstein had to take under the
National Socialist regime was marked by
ostracism, disenfranchisement, and
annihilation. Together with his life
partner Elsa Saenger, he was deported
on October 22, 1940 from Baden-Baden to the internment camp of Gurs
in southern France. In February 1942,
both were transferred to the internment
camp of Noé, in which Sally (Franz
Korwan) Katzenstein perished on
September 4, 1942. On May 30, 1944
Elsa Saenger was deported first to the
detention camp in Drancy (near Paris)
and then to Auschwitz, where her tracks
disappeared in the extermination camp.
