Biography

Dezső Goldglancz was born on 26 February 1890 in Vetiș, Hungary. On 28 May 1944, he was transferred as a Jew from Auschwitz to the Mauthausen concentration camp, and from there on to the Gusen concentration camp. He was assigned prisoner number 67361. He died on 14 November 1944 in Hartheim.

A spoon is associated with Desze Goldglancz in the collections of the concentration camp memorial site. This spoon had several owners. The engraving on the handle shows that it originally belonged to a member of the Italian air force. The spoon probably entered the camp with this Italian man. Later it was marked with the prisoner number of Dezső Goldglancz, a Hungarian. But Goldglancz was murdered at the Hartheim killing facility. Another prisoner must have taken the spoon and brought it to Gunskirchen, where it was found in 2010.
