Kinderheim children from Bergen-Belsen arrived on July 26 1945 on White Boat S/S Kastelholm to Sweden.
After the Liberation on April 15 1945, the group of children from Barrack 211 were moved to the Bergen-Belsen Hospital where a Children's ward was built up by dr. Collis.
After the meeting in Bergen-Belsen, dr. Collis med dr. Hans Arnoldsson that was responsible for the UNNRRA transport by White boats from Lübeck to Sweden, it was decided that this entire group of children and also children with mothers will be moved to Sweden.
First, they boarded the ambulance train on July 23, 1945. It took them from Bergen-Belsen to Lübeck and the UNRRA Centre there, also called Swedish Transit Hospitals. After registration there on July 24, they left Lübeck on July 25th and arrived to Malmö on the next day.
In Sweden, the group was, however, divided. Some of the children were directly sent to the hospital (Nya Lungkliniken). The others were divided into three groups, mothers with children, elder boys, and elder girls, and placed at different locations in and around the city of Malmö.
When the White Boat S/S Kastelholm arrived in Malmö after one night at sea all the passengers have to be registered and disinfected and checked for lice. All these procedures were done on the day of arrival, July 26, 1945. The sick children were transfered to Nya Lungkliniken i Malmö. Thereafter, 20 older girls and the mothers with small children were sent together with Hermina, Bonsel, and Ms. Fernandes to Sundsgården close to Helsingborg. Luba, and the older girls were transferred to Bjärred (north of Malmö and the older boys from the group to a house in Gåsebäck also close to Helsingborg. The children that were hospitalized at Nya Lungkliniken were thereafter moved to Welanderhemmet and sister May.
