“Heim ins Reich”

I just spent two days in Saarbrücken to celebrate my aunt’s 80th birthday. She came from Bavaria to live with us in June of 1959, shortly before our famous return “heim ins Reich.” That is why she combined her 80th birthday with a 50 years Saarland celebration. I have tried to recount some of my memories of those days in an earlier post and now found a more eloquent and very readable article in Zeit Online, which I can recommend if you are interested in the subject.
