The reporter of Mitt i Järfälla tells that Victoria, the staff and students listened with great interest on the 91-year-old Emerich Roth's lecture.
After the lecture Victoria and Roth looked with student ambassadors at the exhibition, done by the students. They listened with interest to the students during the guided tour. Victoria asked questions and discussed. She seemed impressed by their work and finished with a "well done", writes reporter Anna Nyberg.
The students were excited about Victoria's commitment during the guided tour.
- It was really nerve-racking. I thought we would show her around and then she would nod, but she discussed and asked questions, says Eighth-grader Parnia Hamdollazadehkive, 14 years.
Emerich Roth is impressed by the students.
- After having visited 1,800 schools, I know we have some amazing young people in this country, he says.

When Victoria last year attended at the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, Emerich Roth was with her. Then he asked her sometime to come and listen to one of his lectures and it happened today on Viksjö School in Järfälla.
Just before 9:00 in the morning the crown princess came in the company of bodyguards.
Emerich Roth began his address by noting:
- I am very happy and grateful that the Crown Princess is here today. It means so much. Now I will tell you my story.
Then the crown princess got for a over an hour to hear about how Emerich Roth managed to cheat death again and again during World War II and to survive from the Holocaust:
- We all have to bring this story further and not forget. Never forget, said Emerich Roth.
On the front row inside the school auditorium nodded a touched crown princess Victoria.

About Emerich Roth's life
Emerich was 19, when he and his family were taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1943. People were put to two rows: men to the other and women to the other. Emerich and his father were in one row, his mother and younger sisters Edit, 17, Elisabeth, 15, Magdalena, 12 and Judith, 10 at the other row. They walked in front of doctor Mengele. He showed with his hand who should live, and who should die. Emerich and his father got to go to the left - to the work camp, and Edit and Elisabeth too. Their mother and the two youngest sisters were put to the right, straight to the gas chamber. Emerich was 14 months at five different concentration camps. When the liberation came, 8th may 1945, he was in Theresienstadt. His father had been shot two months earlier, and about the same time Edit died at another camp. Only Emerich and his sister Elisabeth survived, the rest of the family together with 40 relatives, died at the Holocaust. Emerich got into a hospital, he was 175 cm tall and weighed 34 kilos. After over four years at a hospital he came to Sweden, were his sister Elisabeth was living. He and his sister didn't talk about what had happened, it was too difficult. Until summer 1992, when Roth was walking in Stockholm and heard men scream "Sieg Heil!" And nobody cared or reacted. And then Roth knew that he had to do something and started The Association of Holocaust Survivors in Sweden.

Johan T Lindwall's report/Expressen's video from yesterday, with a warning about strong photos - Emerich Roth has a film about Holocaust with him at his lecture.
Victoria: "Of course one gets very touched. That is the intention. This must not be forgotten. That he has been here today, despite of his age, despite that it is tough to speak about these things, it is so incredibly precious. And important for all of us. And the film which was shown today about his history, it is what we have left for the future. The students and others should be able to understand, try to understand all that dreadful which has happened, to be able to have these memories alive". Lindwall asks about Victoria's visit to Auschwitz and Victoria says: "It is exceedingly tough but really important".
Lindwall says to Roth that Victoria was touched about what Roth told and she had said that we all must help that this is not forgotten. Roth says: "That is the most important thing, that gives me still motivation and strength to continue as long as I can. What we who have survived from Holocaust tell, that isn't much written at the history books or schoolbooks".
