Pictured here are flames pouring out of a synagogue in Siegen, Germany during Kristallnacht. In Siegen, windows of Jewish homes were smashed and 11 Jewish men were sent to concentration camps. In May 1939, 41 Jews remained in Siegen. Four Jews committed suicide shortly before the rest were deported to the death camps in 1942-43.
