In Vienna 1938-1945, the buildings No 4 and 6, Nelkengasse represent a particularly tragic location in the 6th district of Vienna - Mariahilf. In these houses, a high number of so-called Sammelwohnungen were installed - group flats where many Jews had to move to after eviction from their homes. From here, 31 people were deported to the concentration camps Kielce, Litzmannstadt/Lodz, Kowno, Maly Trostinec, and Auschwitz and murdered there.[1] Heinz Moldau and his family lived in 6, Nelkengasse; the father ran a well-reputed leather goods factory in 26, Westbahnstraße. The factory was aryanized, and the family - Heinz Moldau then a boy of sixteen years - had to flee from Vienna. In the interviews, Heinz Moldau talks about his family, the threats from the Nazis, the aryanization of the leather goods factory and the flight from Vienna.

From 6, Nelkengasse 14 people werde deported and murdered.
