RESEARCHING
GERMAN EXILES
Graves of German Exiles
During the 1930s
and 1940s, many German Jews and intellectuals fled Nazi Germany. At
first many of them moved to neighboring European countries seeking
a haven for their religious and political views. As the National Socialists
expanded their control throughout Europe, the German exiles were again
in grave danger. The exiles found refuge in countries across the globe,
often forced to relocate several times for safety. After the end of
World War II, many returned to Europe and Germany.
This web site
shows the final resting place of some the Germans exiled during these
devastating years. This site will continue to expand when additional
photographs become available. These photographs were taken in Berlin
at the Dorotheen Municipal Cemetery by Marje Schuetze-Coburn and are
located in the Feuchtwanger Memorial Library.
