Wagner-Bürckel Action in Sarre

22-23 oct. 1940·Sarre

Toll
une centaine de déportés

The toll is reproduced exactly as the source states it — never rounded, never added to another. Tolls overlap from one event to the next.

The last Jews of the Sarre are rounded up with those of Baden and the Palatinate and taken to Gurs.

The last Jews of the Sarre were rounded up together with those of Bade and the Palatinat and taken to Gurs.

The Sarre had been reunited with the Reich five years earlier by plebiscite, and most of its Jews had emigrated immediately. Those who remained were the oldest or the most destitute — those who had lacked the means to leave. This is a constant feature of these deportations: they first reach those whom persecution had already ruined.
