Letters to Sala: A Young Woman's Life in Nazi Labor Camps (New York Public Library, Dorot Jewish Division
An online presentation of the life of Sala Garncarz Kirschner, from 1939 to 1945, through over 300 letters, photographs, and documents sent to and kept by her as she survived five years in seven different Nazi forced labor camps.
Sala Garncarz and her family lived in Sosnowiec, an industrial city of 130,000 in Upper Silesia, Poland, a region noted for coal mining and manufacturing. The Jewish community of 29,000 was largely self-governed. Jewish organizations managed social services such as hospitals, schools, burial societies, and orphanages. in the fall of 1940, Sala's sister Raizel was ordered to report to a Nazi labor camp. Sala, two years younger, volunteered to take her place, believing that the timid, pious, intellectual Raizel would find it harder to adapt. Their parents acquiesced, never suspecting that the six weeks of required labor would become five years of slavery. On October 28, 1940, Sala and her mother joined hundreds of Jews at the Sosnowitz train station.
