Menorah from iconic photo with Nazi flag to be lit at Berlin Hanukkah ceremony – Candle-lighting event will be held with photographer’s grandchildren and German president on second night of holiday, 90 years after family fled looming genocide | Timesofisrael
A Hanukkah menorah captured in a famous 1931 photograph symbolizing the defiance of German Jews against rising Nazi powers will be lit in Berlin on Monday, almost 90 years after its owners fled Germany for British Mandatory Palestine.
The picture, taken by Rachel Posner, wife of Rabbi Akiva Posner, shows the candelabra sitting on a window ledge of their home in Kiel overlooking a building across the street adorned with Nazi flags.
