10/30/24, 11:00 AM
By the end of 1942, all Jews in Norway were to be arrested and sent to German death camps. Inger-Lise Rothschild's father fled to Sweden in October. When her mother had to do the same in December, she was refused permission to take her ten-month-old baby on the refugee transport. It was too dangerous. One whimper, and everyone could be killed. The mother had to trust that strangers would take care of the child. She must have understood that this was the only thing that could save them both. After 6 months, little Inger-Lise and her parents were reunited in Sweden. They never knew where the girl had been.
It would take 80 years before the mystery was solved. After NRK had shown the documentary series "Last: Jøder" and wrote about Inger-Lise's long search for her whereabouts – new information emerged that would lead her to the answer. Hear more about this in her exciting lecture! On Tuesday, November 26th, Inger-Lise Rothschild Grusd will be coming to the Jewish Museum Trondheim to tell her story. Don't miss the opportunity!
Tuesday, November 26th, 6:00 PM
