Militancy
Simon Gronowski was born in Brussels on October 12, 1931. His mother and his seven-year-old elder sister died at Auschwitz. His father died in despair on July 9, 1945.
Simon was eleven years old when he was arrested on March 17, 1943, thrown into a Gestapo basement on Avenue Louise in Brussels, detained for a month at the Dossin Barracks in Mechelen, and deported on April 19, 1943, in a cattle wagon of the 20th convoy which transported 1600 Jews from Mechelen to the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp.
Miraculously, he jumped from the train and escaped. All this happened solely because his parents were born into the Jewish religion. In 1945, Simon found himself alone in the world.
