The few Jews remaining in Dresden were concentrated in so-called 'Jew houses'. This scene shows the 'evacuation' of one such building at Güntzstrasse 24. This building was originally the site of the Jewish retirement home 'Henriettenstift'. Its original occupants had been deported to Theresienstadt in the summer of 1942. Jewish men were conscripted to load the few personal belongings onto the trucks. Under supervision they had to load the suitcases, bags and furniture, all labelled with the names of their owners, into moving vans. The locked vans then drove off. The few 'Aryan' passers-by who caught sight of such scenes here or at other 'Jew houses' quickly walked past as if wanting to avoid any contact with what was happening.
