Hi Mimi,
I admire your love for Czernowitz, your knowladge about the the places, the
streets, but how could you write that in 1940 was before the theater a
sunken garden ? when Czernowitz was given???back to Romania and the SS
brought the 300 jewish men to the "Kulturpalais" was there a gardem...the
next friday after the execution, other 400 jewish men were arrested
there...I stood on this place, my husband was inside,,,there was no garden,
just plaster...
Happy Pessach
