Holocaust concentration camps money – 5 Cents 1940′ (1945?) – Germany Deggendorf Camp – Rare – F

Deggendorf was a DP camp in the American-occupied zone of Germany. At its fullest, some 2,000 Holocaust survivors lived there, many of them survivors of the Terezin ghetto in Czechoslovakia. Other Jews at Deggendorf had returned from the Soviet Union, or had survived the concentration camps. Still others were Jews who had survived the Holocaust in Germany, either married to non-Jews or living under an assumed identity.

Two newspapers were in circulation at Deggendorf, and there was a library with about 1,700 books. The camp had a theatre group, a synagogue, a mikve (ritual bath), a kosher kitchen and a home for the elderly. In early 1946, there were some 110 children at the camp, who went to a kindergarten and grade school established and run by the survivors themselves. In addition, the “ORT” organization ran a vocational school there.

Most of the survivors who passed through the camp, both young and old, spent less than a year there before continuing on their way to Eretz Israel.

The Deggendorf camp was closed in June 1949.
