Otto Liebesný

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Otto Liebesný (born January 6, 1894 in Lomnice u Tišnova , † 1944 in Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp ) was a Jewish victim of the Holocaust from Czechoslovakia .

Life

Otto Liebesný comes from the Liebesný family who lived in Lomnice u Tišnova since the 19th century: the gravestones of the merchant Moritz Liebesný and his wife Louisa Liebesná from the 1820s are in the Jewish cemetery in Lomnice. Otto Liebesný, their son, married Markéta Liebesná nee Weissbartová (1898); both lived in Lomnice, their children Jan Liebesný, later Jan Líbezný (* 1923) and Lilly Luisa Liebesná (* 1927) also grew up in Lomnice. Since 1940 Markéta Liebesná's mother, Mrs. Ida Weissbartová, lived in the family .

The family was arrested in April 1942. Otto Liebesný was probably deported on April 4, 1942 with Transport Ah No. 525 from Brno to Theresienstadt and then with Transport Eb No. 2055 from Theresienstadt to Auschwitz . During the liquidation of the BIIB family camp in Auschwitz ( Theresienstadt family camp or Theresienstadt family camp), he was murdered in the gas chamber between July 10 and July 12, 1944.

The online edition of the national magazine Literární noviny from September 13, 2011 also reported on the laying of the Stolperstein in Lomnice. The “Heritage Days” are organized in Lomnice every year by the local beautification association OSLO, which also campaigned for the stumbling block. In 2011 and 2013 a total of 9 stumbling blocks have been laid in the community on the occasion.
