Sharing our knowledge @holocaustuk

[Regional Ambassadors 2020-22 @HETRA_2020]

Our dear friend Gena Turgel, survivor of Bergen-Belsen, passed away in 2018. Known as the ‘Bride of Belsen’, Gena survived the Krakow ghetto, Auschwitz, Buchenwald and Bergen-Belsen, ultimately marrying her British liberator Norman Turgel.
