Just an observation regarding the content of this article. Romania Ion Antonescu was in fact among the allies of Nazi Germany and as such, she participated in the persecution of Jews. It should be noted however that this excludes the persecution Jews have Romanian nationality.
Note on the tombstone: Hittler and not Hitler. These are variants of the same surname.
Bucharest - "Here lie the remains of ADOLF HITLER. Died October 26, 1892 at the age of 60. Pray for his soul," reads in Romanian and Hebrew on the tomb of the Jewish cemetery in Bucharest Filantropia Romania. The chronicler of the Romanian Jewish community, Marius Mircu, recounts in his book "Filantropia, a graveyard full of life," the story of the hatter who had the misfortune to share the same name and first name as Adolf Hitler's German revolutionize Europe in the 1940s with the Second World War and Nazi policy of extermination.
Mircu was surprised to discover the grave of Hitler Romanian and, intrigued by the coincidence worthy of the most irreverent black humor, has done research in the archives of the city. He thus learned that Adolf Hitler had a studio in Bucharest and a hat shop in the Rue Royale.
The hatter Hitler died before the Nazis can descend on the European continent, but have the same name as Hitler will disrupt peace of his memory for decades.
Gravestone destroyed
In the midst of World War II, an employee of the cemetery by chance noticed the inscription on the grave of Hitler. At the time, Romania Ion Antonescu was allied with Germany and participated in the political persecution of Jews driven by the Führer. The Jewish community was thus stripped of their rights and brutally murdered.
In this climate of terror, says Mircu, this discovery caused great nervousness among those aware of the existence of this grave, which hastened to remove the text in Romanian with Hitler's name for fear that the authorities consider the pro Nazi as a provocation.
Restoration
It took forty years to the memory of the Jewish Hitler could have the honor to again be seen by all. "The repair had done in 1987 on the initiative of Rabbi Moses Rosen," says Iosif Colnareanu Jewish engineer who worked with the team who rebuilt the monument. "It was an act of justice because this man was guilty of anything in the name he had," he recalls.
"The monument (burial) was rebuilt exactly as it was, but in a style more common in the 1980s. The epitaph, however, was faithfully repected. Says the engineer who oversaw construction.
