Life

In 1936 the family came to the Klein Silsterwitz forestry department in the Zobten Forestry Office in the Breslau district in Lower Silesia . Zobten became Steffi Fuhrmann's new home.
After the war, when the father returned to Silesia from Soviet captivity , the family came back to Silsterwitz and had to work for the Polish forestry, but were allowed to stay in the forestry. In October 1947, Steffi Fuhrmann married the Polish forester Wróbel, whose marriage resulted in five children.

She is still active in the vocal group today and her daughter is now also actively involved. Fuhrmann-Wróbel is still an active member of the DSKG Breslau .
