German Oskar Schindler, credited with saving 1,200 Jews from the Holocaust, dies at 66. During the Nazi era, of which he was a member, Schindler ran a factory in Krakow that employed Polish workers from the nearby Jewish ghetto. When the ghetto was liquidated, he persuaded the Nazis to allow the workers to be transferred to the Plaszow labor camp, thus saving them from the extermination camps. In 1944, all the Jews of Plaszow were deported to Auschwitz, but Schindler, at great personal risk, managed to bribe officials to allow him to retain his workers and set up a factory in occupied Czechoslovakia. By the end of the war, penniless, he had saved 1,200 people. In 1962, Yad VaShem, the Israeli Holocaust Remembrance Institute, declared him a &#8220;righteous among the gentiles.&#8221; He is buried in Israel, according to his wishes, in the Catholic cemetery on Mount Zion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oskar Schindler dies.
