Berlin, Mitte district – On the Litfass column, which serves as a memorial, a number of plaques were torn down, which described the resistance to the deportation of the Jews in 1943.
The Litfass column stands in Berlin’s Mitte district, in proximity to the “Women’s Block”, in memory of the protests that took place at Rose street (Rosenstraße). Police was updated about property damage.
The Rose St. Protests involved resistance from non-Jewish women, and relatives, to the deportation of some 2,000 Jews, who were imprisoned as “those who are considered Jews”, within the premises of the authority then in charge of welfare and youth care within the Jewish community. Most people concerned were also released after a while, due to protests that continued for days.
