Polička. Her single mother was unable to support her, so Eva grew up at the Solars husbands until the age of two in Javornik near Svitavy and later at the Michalcov in Nořín near Chocen. In the summer of 1943, her foster parents were ordered to take her to a gathering place in Hagibor, Prague, on the basis of Nuremberg racial laws. Shortly thereafter, she found herself in Terezin. She was probably awaiting her transfer to Auschwitz when her biological mother, Růžena Rosenkrancová, sought her out. She was arrested in Vysoké Mýto and transported to Terezín in February 1944 in a highly pregnant. After childbirth, she was placed in the “gallery” house No. 21 together with her child, where she also brought her found daughter Eva. The change of placement and position of the child in the transport system apparently caused Eva to finally live with her mother and little sister at the end of the war in Terezín. After returning, she did not stay with her biological family, but returned to Michalecs foster parents, who adopted her at the age of fifteen. Since she started school at the age of eleven, she completed elementary education in an accelerated regime. She trained with a lathe and worked in the Choceň factory Let (Orličan). She got married and in 1962 she moved with her husband and son to Pardubice, where she still lives today.
