Oscar Schindler’s Grave in Jerusalem, Israel

Article by Mattie Bryant on Quora

 

Oscar Schindler lived till 1974, totally broke and dependent on the support of the ones he saved during the Holocaust.

 

It was his own wish to be buried in Jerusalem, close to his children, as he called the jews that he saved. His grave is on Mount Zion on the catholic cemetary there and he is honoured as Righteous Among The Nations.

 

His gravesite, with the countless stones laid down by jews.

 

 

Edit by Mattie Bryant: I never thought my answer would get as much attention in just one week. Glad to have provided some insgights into a real human being, that is mostly known for a Spielberg movie.
