In the organizer's words:

Frank Felsenstein will talk about the history of his family in Leipzig and their position in the fur trade. He will focus on the life of his father, Ernst Moritz Felsenstein (1899-1973), both before and after 1933. A large collection of letters between him and Vera Hirsch (Felsenstein) from 1936 to 1939 offers a unique insight into daily life under National Socialism. The Jewish community in Leipzig before the Holocaust will also be discussed.
