Herbert Cohen and his family

Herbert and Annaliese Cohen hid in their own home at Haarlemmerstraat 107 III until the end of 1943. Then, because of the growing number of betrayals, the increasing unreliability of the neighbours, and problems obtaining enough food, they moved, with the help of the house’s official tenants, to a farm outside Gouda, where they went into hiding. The tenants’ son recalls: ‘My father went with them in the train – without yellow stars, with forged papers, and Annaliese Cohen’s hair dyed blonde – and escorted them to the address himself. It all went well for a while.’ But then Herbert Cohen was caught while going for a walk outside the grounds, after which his place of hiding was found in his address book. Herbert and Annaliese were killed in Auschwitz in February 1944.
