The contemporary witness tells – child between the mother cross and the plane crash

Date:

Katharina Stepesser (88) from Metnitz lost two uncle and her father in the Second World War. The “Kroon” tells her about the plane crash in the grandparent courtyard, the golden mother cross of her grandmother and her childhood.

“There is a dead man,” says Katl and points to the meadow for the “Pechmann”. She has framed the black -white photo of the grandparents on which she grew up. She can remember the plane crash in February 1945: “They were seven dead. At that time there was a meter of snow.” And there she follows her hand in the photo: “Is a stream down, a stream of fuel; the tanks tore it during the explosion. And the stream burned to – it was taken out of the snow. That was.”
