Women
In her lecture "Luxembourgish Women in the Resistance against the Nazi Regime", Dr. Kathrin Mess pays tribute to Luxembourgish women who joined the resistance during the Nazi occupation of Luxembourg and were imprisoned in concentration camps and prisons for this reason. Around 200 Luxembourgish women were incarcerated in the Ravensbrück concentration camp for women alone. Many of them were killed or died there under catastrophic conditions. These women came from different social backgrounds, political movements, and regions of the country, and led both individual and organized resistance against the Nazi regime. The lecture analyzes numerous unpublished testimonies, letters, and historical documents, and presents women who told their stories of resistance in autobiographical interviews. The aim of the lecture is to give these women a face and a voice.
