Donations And Foundation

Hot off the press is now a booklet about the Irish priest Hugh O'Flaherty (1898-1963) who helped over 6,000 vulnerable and persecuted people in Rome during the Nazi occupation of Rome from September 1943 to June 1944. O'Flaherty had lived at the German priests' college on Campo Santo since 1938 and directed the aid missions from his room. Thomas Kieslinger and Stefan Heid reconstruct the conditions at Campo Santo at that time, also with the help of unpublished photos. An English and Italian edition are being planned.
