Jeannette Vogelsang was arrested during an attempt to escape to Switzerland. She was interned in Mechelen (Belgium) and from there deported to Auschwitz. There, presumably because of her 'Jewish appearance', she was selected for anthropological research. Together with 85 other prisoners she was taken to Natzweiler, where she was murdered for 'scientific purposes'. The bodies were intended for an intended anatomical museum at the University of Strasbourg. Towards the end of the war, all the evidence of this experiment was destroyed.
