'It saved my life': Kindertransport veterans unveil statue at Essex port.
Harwich memorial commemorates rescue of 10,000 unaccompanied Jewish children from Nazi regime.
The first Kindertransport train left Berlin on 1 December 1938, and the first train from Vienna departed nine days later. The rescue mission ended with the outbreak of war. It has been commemorated with memorials across Europe, including Liverpool Street station in London. But until now, the children's point of arrival had been unmarked.
The Harwich memorial, by Ian Wolter, is of five children cast in bronze, stepping down a gangplank on to safe ground. One is striding forward optimistically, one is peering about curiously, one looks anxious, and one is looking back, perhaps to the home, family and life he has lost. The fifth is doing what children do in similar settings: climbing the handrail.

Harwich memorial commemorates rescue of 10,000 unaccompanied Jewish children from Nazi regime.
The first Kindertransport train left Berlin on 1 December 1938, and the first train from Vienna departed nine days later. The rescue mission ended with the outbreak of war. It has been commemorated with memorials across Europe, including Liverpool Street station in London. But until now, the children's point of arrival had been unmarked.
The Harwich memorial, by Ian Wolter, is of five children cast in bronze, stepping down a gangplank on to safe ground. One is striding forward optimistically, one is peering about curiously, one looks anxious, and one is looking back, perhaps to the home, family and life he has lost. The fifth is doing what children do in similar settings: climbing the handrail.
