Paula Neuwirthova with her grandson Palo Neuwirth

This is my grandmother Paula Neuwirthova with her grandson, Palo Neuwirth. The photo was taken in Vienna in 1935.

My grandmother was from Vienna. She was in an old people's home in Nove Mesto nad Vahom during the Holocaust and died there.

Palo was my uncle Rudolf Neuwirth’s son. He was deported along with his parents and perished in Auschwitz in 1943.
