Tree 6

Viktor Knopf

Viktor Knopf was born in 1922 in Teschen near Ljublin (Silesia). From 1946 onwards he lived in Pinzgau / Salzburg. In 1947 Viktor led most of the 5,000 refugees in groups of 200 - 250 people across the Krimml Tauern, often doing the route twice a week. His prudence is to be thanked that all arrived safely in South Tyrol. In 1998 he died in Zell am See.
