A female survivor at Hadamar. She had been committed there five years earlier, judged insane because she had a Jewish boyfriend. The Hadamar Euthanasia Centre (NS-Tötungsanstalt) was a psychiatric hospital in the German town of Hadamar, used by the Nazis as the site of their T-4 Euthanasia Programme, which performed mass sterilizations and mass murder of "undesirable" members of Nazi society with physical and mental disabilities. About 14,000 adults and children died there.
