Karl Schnurmann was a tapestry weaver in Innsbruck. With his wife Berta, he was expelled to Vienna and from there deported on December 3, 1941, to the Latvian capital Riga, where their traces disappear. The sons Erwin and Siegfried survived by fleeing to Palestine. Siegfried eventually returned to Innsbruck and prepared a grave for the murdered parents. The Hebrew inscription for Karl and Berta Schnurmann states that they were murdered, but their souls may rise again.
