József Kövesi, born in 1905 in Szöd, a village in the Pest County, north of Budapest, was arrested due to his Jewish origins and was forcibly transported as a laborer to the construction of the Southeast Wall to Rechnitz. On the night of 24th to 25th March 1945, József Kövesi was murdered at the Kreuzstadl.
