From the 1920s, it stood for a programme of the Zionist youth movement: on farms and estates in Germany, young Jews were to learn everything that they would one day need to live and work on the land in Palestine.<br \/><br \/>What had begun as a voluntary initiative changed in the face of the increasingly repressive measures taken by the Nazis after 1933, with the vocational training centres becoming one of the few routes of escape for many young German Jews. In 1935, there were 31 Hakhshara vocational schools for agriculture and horticulture in Germany. Between 1933 and 1938, these institutions helped more than 18,000 young Jews emigrate from Germany, most to Palestine \u2013 about one in four of the generation of six- to

Located on a farm in the agricultural landscape of Westerbeck near Westerkappeln, it was the only one of its kind in the former Prussian province of Westphalia. The young people themselves called the farm \u201cKibbutz Westerbeck\u201d in the 1930s, although it was not really a communally managed farm in the strict sense, but a centre of vocational training and place of refuge.<br \/><br \/>From December 1932, the farm was owned by the Osnabr\u00fcck horse dealer Rudolf Stern and his brother, the businessman Leo Stern, who also worked in Osnabr\u00fcck. The two brothers leased the farm to the Jewish scout association \u201cMaccabi Hatzair\u201d, which set up a vocational centre for Jewish school leavers between the ages of 15 and 17. The last to run the school were the couple Dora and Siegfried L\u00f6wenstein from Syke near Bremen, who lived on the farm with their daughter Grete.<br \/><br \/>A total of 104 adolescents and young adults, 32 female and 72 male, lived at \u201cHof Stern\u201d (as it was also called) between January 1934 and November 1938. They came from major cities like Berlin and Leipzig, from cities such as Bielefeld, Dortmund and Essen, but also from villages such as Madfeld near Brilon, Herzlake in Emsland, and Westerstede in Ammerland.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-204e0135 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"204e0135\"

residents of Westerkappeln; events were also closely monitored by the registry authority, by local and regional Nazi officials, and by the police.<br \/><br \/>On 1 August 1935, the deputy head of the district authority informed the Gestapo in M\u00fcnster about the \u201cJewish retraining camp\u201d, and noted among other things: \u201cAt the moment, I am still making inquiries (which, incidentally, are very difficult to carry out) as to whether those retrained actually emigrate or whether they remain in Germany\u201d.<br \/><br \/>On 10 August 1935, the M\u00fcnster Gestapo informed the head of the district authority in the Tecklenburg region that they had \u201csuggested to the Gestapo in Berlin that the Jewish retraining camp in Westercappeln-Westerbeck be dissolved in the interest of public safety and order\u201d.<br \/><br \/>Attempts by the Nazis and the Gestapo to dissolve the Hakhshara school came to nothing at the time, however, for reasons not yet known.

Four young men were still living on the farm at the time, and they, along with Siegfried L\u00f6wenstein, were imprisoned in Westerkappeln. While L\u00f6wenstein was able to return to the farm after a week, the four young men were deported to the Buchenwald concentration camp for several weeks.<br \/><br \/>One of the four seems to have escaped to a foreign country shortly afterwards, while the other three were deported and murdered during the war years: in the Buchenwald concentration camp, in the Riga ghetto, and in the Stutthof concentration camp.<br \/><br \/>The L\u00f6wenstein couple, Siegfried (50) and Dora (49), were deported to Belarus in 1941, where both died (presumably in July 1942) in the Minsk
