Leo Werner Goldschmidt was nicknamed Uri. He stayed at the youth aliyah home Huize Voorburg in Elden from 13 October 1941 until 31 December 1942. This home in the South of Arnhem was intended for older Palestine pioneers (ages 16 to 19). He was deported to Bergen-Belsen with a group of Palestine Pioneers. This group was to be exchanged for Germans in Palestine. Leo Werner Goldschmidt perished one day before the group was to depart.
