- As a teenager in 1944, Peter Feigl could see the French-Swiss border-a mere 100 yards away-from his spot in the woods. But he would have to get past armed guards, barking dogs, and two barbed wire fences before reaching safety in Switzerland.
Despite being baptized as Catholic, Peter had been on the run for years-first with his parents and then alone. He moved from one place to another, trying to stay one step ahead of the Nazis, often keeping his identity hidden.
Hear Holocaust survivor Peter Feigl’s experiences in his own words recorded on May 24, 2023. First Person is a monthly, hour-long discussion with a Holocaust survivor that is made possible through generous support from the Louis Franklin Smith Foundation.
As the grandchild of a Holocaust survivor, I listen to as many first-person accounts as possible. Thank you, Mr. Feigl, for your bravery and willingness to share your story.
God bless you Peter, thankfully you survived to tell your family’s story and honour them.
Mr Benson conducts the interviews very well.
I have been watching Mr. Benson interviewing survivors for years. The survivors who teach us about their and our past are stronger and braver than I could ever be. I appreciate the USHMM.
I feel the same about Mr. Benson and these heroes who share their difficult stories.
Someone simply must make a movie about this man's life. It is so profound!
This is so enlightening, thank you 🙏
This man has missed out on all his jewish roots. Family were not really fair in his secular teaching x. How does he feel about this.
