Abstract
I examine the depositions of Terezín survivors in the proceedings that focused on the ghetto there. These witness statements from trials concerning Terezín represent a large collection of early Holocaust testimonies, one that to date has not been examined in this light. Witnesses who testified before or at trials concerning Terezín were generally born between 1900 and 1910. Most of them died before the launch of the large oral history projects in the1990s.Their legal testimonies are often the only self-testimony they left behind.
