Bertha Neumann (born on February 22, 1893) stands in the shadow of her husband Karl in many biographies. Sometimes she is mentioned as a nurse, then again as a doctor. Rather, it is true that Bertha Neumann was one of the first women in Germany to acquire an academic degree in political science / social sciences. In 1920 she published a scientific paper on the health sector.

She was married to the local doctor Karl Neumann from Liesing and was deported with him and their youngest son Klaus on June 24, 1943 with Transport 46i to the Theresienstadt ghetto . Her older descendants, Anna Rosa (1924–2006) and Peter Franz (1927–1986), were sent to England in 1938 and 1939 with Kindertransporte, respectively, and finally emigrated to Brazil. They had five children and seven grandchildren. Bertha Neumann, her husband and her youngest son, just 12 years old, were deported to Auschwitz on October 28, 1944 with Transport Ev and murdered there by the Nazi regime .

Dr. Karl Neumann Karl Neumann (born on March 22nd, 1890) was a highly respected general practitioner in Liesing , ordained and lived at Schulgasse 10. He married Bertha Neumann (born Kunreuther), a young Jewish woman from Frankfurt am, who was three years his junior Main.

Karl Neuman was a very popular and social community doctor. Allegedly he financed an ambulance for Liesing from his own resources. In particular, he devoted himself to home nursing and childcare. According to the Nuremberg Race Laws, Karl Neumann was a "first degree hybrid" in the Nazi language, which, also because he was a Catholic, offered him little protection, but since he had a Jewish wife, he was under massive pressure exercised to get divorced. Karl Neumann was loyal to his wife Bertha. He was offered full "rehabilitation" several times if he got divorced. The reprisals against Jewish citizens started immediately after Austria was annexed to Germany and Karl Neumann was no longer allowed to work as a doctor.

Karl Neumann was deported together with his wife Bertha and his youngest son Klaus on August 19, 1941 to a collective apartment in Porzellangasse, Vienna 9th. During this time he worked as a so-called “patient handler” in the Jewish retirement home in Seegasse. On April 19, 1943, the Neumann family was moved to another collective apartment at Große Stadtgutgasse 24 in the 2nd district. Karl's brother, Gustav Neumann, tried in vain to save his brother and his family and to get them out of the ghetto. After only two months, however, he was deported to the Theresienstadt concentration camp. Allegedly the Neumann family in Theresienstadt played an important role in health care. Despite all this, their fate was sealed six months before the end of the war. On October 28, 1944, the family was transported to Auschwitz and murdered there. The exact date of death is not known. His two oldest descendants survived.

The Dr.-Neumann-Gasse in Liesing is named after Karl Neumann.

Memorial plaque for the Liesingen victims of euthanasia.jpg 140 Liesinger euthanasia victims T 3 Perchtoldsdorfer Strasse 6
Erioll world.svg
The memorial plaque bears the names of 140 murdered people with reference to today's Liesing district. According to research by the Stones of Remembrance Association in Liesing, they were murdered in 1940 and 1941.

Many of these victims previously lived in the so-called supply house, a care facility in Liesingen Castle, and in other social institutions in the 23rd district. The plaque also reminds of people who previously lived in Liesing, were then housed in institutions outside Vienna and murdered in Hartheim or other killing centers. It can be assumed that other people were murdered in the course of the euthanasia. Unfortunately, very little is known about most of the victims. There are many elderly people among them, but not only - a girl from Liesingen first came to Gugging and was murdered at the age of 15.
