Jerry Springer Takes A Trip To Landsberg, Germany - Who Do You Think You Are?

Jerry knew that his father Richard Springer inherited his shoe shop from his own father, Nathan Springer, who had founded the shoe shop in Landsberg and died in 1930. Nathan Springer was born in a town called Neustettin, so Jerry wanted to travel there to find out more about his grandfather's life and any potential Springer family information.
Although he has lived in America most of his life, Jerry Springer was born in Golders Green, London, in 1944. His Jewish parents escaped Nazi Germany just three days before the outbreak of the Second World War, however, both of Jerry's grandmothers perished in the Holocaust and all knowledge of his earlier antecedents was lost with them. Jerry's hoping he can find out the secrets of the Springer family roots.

When Jerry gets emotional and his voice breaks, I lose it

[@zaqueshdacampos5492]

I'm happy for Jerry to actually see where his grandfather had his store.

[@Ea-Nasir_Copper_Co]

Landsburg is now Górzow, Poland.

[@Ashleighs-here]

[@auntiedough2488]

Have you ever heard of BadLandeck? Is also now in Poland. My grandfather as born there.

[@packisbetter90]

[@keithrichardson3942]

Troubled times .. I'm glad they escaped

[@henningbartels6245]

Jerry Springer didn't take a trip to Landsberg, Germany, but to Gorzów Wielkopolski in Poland how this place it called today. The region was annexed by Poland after the war and the original inhabitants expelled.

[@TallMarisa]

I'm thankful at least Jerry is widely successful.

[@gabalw.3992]

[@adamcheklat7387]

NSDAP stands for "Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei", meaning National Socialist German Workers' Party.

[@blackvulcan100]

Difficult to believe this actually happened.

🦅🦉🦅 we in the USA came soooo close to fascist takeover ... people, let’s educate ourselves so jan 6, 2021, never happens again in our beloved country 🦅🦉🦅🦅🦉🦅🦉🦅Peace🦅🦉🦅Blessings🦅🦉

[@rodneytrotter3725]

Jan 6th wasn’t a fascist attack. Fascism is a far left ideology

[@thebestofallworlds187]

3:43 ... you mean the one day boycott?

[@mytexasdays1526]

Holy moly, does this need subtitles or what! I can't understand what he is saying.

[@thebestofallworlds187]

Maybe his family deserved it? I mean, look what Jerry has done to the USA.

[@carl5192]

If your a comedian I respect your comment. However, do you truly believe that people should have been treated in that way?

[@jillybe1873]

Jeez this is disgusting
