Demmin, Province of Pomerania (now in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern), Germany.
On May 1, 1945, hundreds of women committed mass suicide. Although death toll
estimates vary, it is acknowledged to be the largest mass suicide ever recorded. The
suicide was part of a mass suicide wave amongst the population of Nazi Germany.
Methods of suicides included drowning in the rivers, hanging, wrist-cutting, and
using firearms. The suicides were either carried out with guns, razor blades or
poison, others hanged or drowned themselves in the Peene and Tollense rivers.
Several mothers killed their children before killing themselves, or walked into one
of the rivers with a rock in a backpack and their babies in their arms. Some women
committed suicide by walking into the rivers, tied together. A local forester first
shot three young daughters, then their mothers, then his wife. In another recorded
case, a daughter cut the wrists of herself. Nazi officials, the police and a number of
citizens had left the town before the arrival of the Red Army.
