Holocaust Memorial Day Trust
27 Jan 2017

For Holocaust Memorial Day 2017, John Simm reads the words of Sigrid Falkenstein.

Researching her family history, Sigrid Falkenstein found her aunt’s name – Anna Lehnkering – on a list of 30,000 people who were murdered by the Nazis as part of the Aktion T4 project in the year 1940/1941. This spurred Sigrid on to find out more both about her Aunt and Aktion T4, the Nazi programme for sterilising and murdering those with mental or physical disabilities.
