The Jewish cemetery of Abbazia / Opatija: Many Jewish families >from = Hungary or Austria lived or took a cure at the =93Austrian Riviera=94. And as = with Fiume, there are lots of names which we also know >from Budapest, = Burgenland and Vienna: Antonie BREINER and her Deutschkreutz-born husband Sigmund, = who ran two kosher hotels; Sigmund KURZ, the president of Abbazia=92s Jewish community, married in Vienna and died in Abbazia at age 90; or the large N=C1DAS / NATHAN family: Bernard Nathan initiated the Holocaust memorial = which was inaugurated in 1955. We have brought with us 44 photos of gravestones of Jewish families from Abbazia and got to know their stories. And again, the Shoa is = omnipresent: In the index of persons there are 64 names of Jews who died in Abbazia = and the names of 52 Shoa victims (Livia LOEWY was only 4 years old, Berta POLITZER was 88 years old).
