Max Moszkowicz Sr , is a famous German Born Dutch Lawyer and Holocaust survivor.

In 1933 Moszkowicz's Jewish parents fled to the Netherlands for fear of the rising National Socialism party and settled with their family in Maastricht. When he was 15 years old, Max was deported to Auschwitz. He had number 65016. Because Auschwitz was being dismantled, he had to join the death march to Mauthausen in early 1945. Due to administrative disorder, the prisoners were re-registered there and Max pretended to be the Protestant Max Raab (Raab is his mother's maiden name). After a short time he had to go to Melk, an Aussenlager located 80 km to the east from Mauthausen. After a short stay he had to go to Ebensee, also an Aussenlager from Mauthausen, whi Max Moszkowicz Sr , is a famous German Born Dutch Lawyer and Holocaust survivor.

After a short time he had to go to Melk, an Aussenlager located 80 km to the east from Mauthausen. After a short stay he had to go to Ebensee, also an Aussenlager from Mauthausen, which was again 200 km west. He was probably part of the last transport there, on April 15, 1945. That camp was the most gruesome, according to the later published diary of Heinz Kounio, who stayed in the same camps about the same time as Max. Max's father also had to go to Ebensee and was killed by lethal injection immediately upon arrival. Max ended up with a group of prisoners who would be killed in retaliation for an escape of Russian prisoners. An SS non-commissioned officer prevented this. In a small book, Max reported on the last hours before the liberation of the camp, in the afternoon of May 6, 1945. That book was kept in a safe in Maastricht for decades. Max lost his father, mother, brother and sister. They were killed in German death camps. He himself returned to Maastricht on May 16, 1945. After his return from Germany, he was received by a Catholic family in Limburg.

After the war, Moszkowicz finished grammar school and started studying medicine in Utrecht. He soon switched this study for law at the Catholic University of Nijmegen. After graduating, he settled as a lawyer in Maastricht. On October 5, 1948, he married Maria Bertha (Berthe) Bessems in Maastricht, a member of the family that had taken him in. They had four sons, David, Max Jr., Robert and Bram. His sons also studied law and entered the legal profession for the family firm As a criminal lawyer, Moszkowicz grew to be the most famous and Respected lawyer of the Netherlands.

Quotes by Max Moszkowicz (?)

“Het doel van de straf mag zeker niet zijn de wraak, het doel van de straf moet zijn, om je medemens, want ook een misdadiger is een medemens, om die door wat je hem aandoet, dus de straf die je hem geeft, als het kan beter te maken.”
― Max Moszkowicz
