Large Archive of “Beitar” Activist Shlomo Kor, ca. 300 items, 150 Photos from Jewish German DP camp Landsberg 1946-48
Large Archive of an Activist of “Beitar” Shlomo Kor. More than 300 items, First half of 20th cen.
Ca 150 Photographs from Jewish German DP camp “Landsberg of Beitar organization” 1946-1948, original lifetime photo of Ze'ev Jabotinsky. And other well-known Jewish persons. Family photos from Russian Empire mainly from Latvia and photos from Israel of Beitar organization. Newspapers and newspaper clippings. Signed in Yiddish, Hebrew and Russian
Shlomo Kor (January 21, 1921 - June 6, 2008) was one of the leaders of Betar in She'erit HaPleita in Europe, a Likud member, a senior member of the newspaper Maariv and an active deputy chairman of the Israel Broadcasting Authority in the 1980s.
His life
Kor was born in Riga, the capital of Latvia. He studied at Hapoel Mizrahi educational institutions, was influenced by the worldview of the revisionist movement, and joined the Betar youth movement as a child. Zeev Jabotinsky's visit to Riga, when Kor was 11, left a deep impression on him.
Kor's parents and brother were murdered in the Holocaust. He himself was employed in forced labor in the port of Riga, killed a Nazi officer and fled, but was captured. After the liberation, he worked for the She'erit HaPleita organization on German soil, and immigrated to Israel on an illegal immigrant ship.
The Landsberg DP camp was erected in the American-occupied zone of Germany, about 60 km west of Munich, on land that had housed a German military compound during the war.
The camp was originally designated for all displaced persons, but from October 1945, it was intended for Jews only. Some 5000 Holocaust survivors were gathered at the camp, most of them from Russia, Lithuania and Latvia. Landsberg was the second largest DP camp in the American zone. Samuel Gringauz, Chairman of the Central Council of Liberated Jews in the American zone, was the founding editor of the camp’s newspaper, first printed in October 1945. This newspaper gained a reputation as one of the best in the American zone.
Landsberg DP camp was also the site of an ORT (Organization for Reconstruction and Training) field headquarters. The organization operated a comprehensive educational network in the camp, ranging from preschool through college, including training farms (Hachshara), kibbutzim, a Talmud Torah and a Klausenburger Yeshiva. From October 1945, Jakob Oleiski ran courses for professional training in Landsberg, through ORT. The camp boasted a rich cultural life, including a theater troupe, and a theater and cinema. Holocaust survivor and artist Samuel Bak lived and worked there. In October 1945, David Ben Gurion, Chairman of the Jewish Agency, visited Landsberg and was instrumental in acquiring more space for the overpopulated camp.
The number of camp inhabitants started to decrease in 1947, and by July 1949 only 2,150 Jews were left there. The Landsberg DP camp was closed on 15 October 1950.
