The Würzburg Gestapo ordered some 800 Jews from 19 different sub-districts and three different counties (a total of 80 different communities) to present themselves in Platz’schen-Garten, for the purpose of "evacuation". On the 25th of April, 78 Jews from Würzburg were ordered to present themselves as well. At about 3:00 PM the deportation train left Würzburg, carrying 852 Jews. The train stopped at Bamberg to collect 103 Jews from the area, among them Jews from Nuremberg and Fürth, who had not been deported in the previous transport on the 23rd of March. On April the 28th the deportees reached Krasnystaw in the Lublin district of Poland.

A mocking caption in German appears under the photograph, reading: “The most beautiful of all the beauties of the chosen people”. Rosa Klein (née Kremer) was born in 1904 in the small town of Poppenlauer. Her daughter Hanna was born in January 1941, in Theilheim in the Schweinfurt district, which had housed a Jewish community from the early 16th century. In 1933 Theilheim had 70 Jews, who amounted to 12.9% of the population.
