Holocaust Children, Denmark

Overview

Thanks to the support of the monarchy and the Danish government and local population, virtually all Danish-Jewish children survived the Holocaust. In a massive rescue operation by the Danish Resistance, in October 1943 the Danish Jewish population was transported by fishing boats to neutral Sweden. Those who did not make it (around 500, including 50 children) were deported to Theresienstadt, but the Danish government was able to support them through the Red Cross and have them repatriated on April 15, 1945,a few weeks before the liberation of the camp.
