Prince Charles meets Holocaust survivors

Prince Charles will meet two British Holocaust survivors today at the Jewish Museum in Vienna, as part of an official visit to Austria.

Freddie Knoller and Harry Bibring will speak to the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall about their early lives in Austria, which was the home to 185,000 Jews before the Second World War.

Mr Knoller, 95, survived Auschwitz-Birkenau, while 91-year-old Mr Bibring arrived in Britain as a child on the Kindertransport.

Both learned after the Holocaust that their parents had been murdered, and they rebuilt their lives in Britain.
