Magdalena Kusserow was from a family of 11 children. She was a Jehovah's Witness's who was imprisoned during the war, because of her religious and neutral stand. She along with a few of her sisters were taken at a young age to a Nazi foster home to be "reeducated." In April 1941 she was arrested and detained till the age of 18. She was given the choice to be free if she signed a statement repudiating her faith. Magdalena refused and was sent to Ravensbrueck, a concentration camp. There she learned two of her brothers had died. One was shot the other was guillotined. Her job at the concentration camp was to watch over the children of the SS Women and gardening. In April 1945, her mother along with another one of her sisters were liberated by the Russians.
