The Arolsen Archives in Germany is dedicated to reuniting Holocaust survivors with lost relatives and their loved ones' belongings. This initiative became particularly significant for two half-sisters, Sula Miller and Helen Schaller, who discovered their shared father, Mendel Müller, a Holocaust survivor. Through Miller's inquiry, researchers at the archives found a 1951 letter from Müller’s wife looking for him. Over several years, they traced Schaller in Germany, resulting in a heartfelt reunion—highlighting the archives' vital role in keeping historical memories alive and aiding family connections long after the Nazi regime's atrocities.
