75 Years Commemoration – Radautz Synagogue – 10/2016 – by Adina Babeş

In the fall of 1941, following the order of Ion Antonescu govenrment, 91,845 of Jews from Bukovina were deported. From 9th until the 15 of October 1941, from the train stations of Suceava, Gura Humorului, Câmpulung Moldovenesc, Vatra Dornei and Rădăuți, men, women, children were sent to Transnistria. Most of them died there, executed, or from epidemics, cold and starvation.

This year, we commemorate 75 years since this dark chapter of Romanian history. To honor the memory of the victims, commemorative plaques were placed on the facades of the train station from where the trains left to Transnistria.

This is a project of Federation of Communities of Romanian Jews and Elie Wiesel National institute for the study of Holocaust in Romania.
