1945
Letter written by Magda Goebbels from Schwanenwerder, dated February 1945, adressed to Helene ('Heli') Bouhler.
There's no date written on the letter, but the ink docket notes "12/2/1945". In the second picture, I underlined the word Kinder ("children") in red.
Tumblr media
My dear Heli!
(...) A thousand thanks for thinking of me on my birthday and for the lovely chrysanthemums you sent me.
Tumblr media
The children are growing and developing nicely and that is a great happiness for us. My husband works like a horse and I follow my obligations as well as I can. In this difficult time and with the added burden of more work for all of us I am nonetheless happy and in good form as far as my health is concerned. At the moment I am undergoing a course of injections for weight gain because I weigh only [?] kilograms. How much I long to see you again. If you don't come to Berlin I think I must invite myself to Nuszdorf. I would really like to do that after Christmas if you can't come to Berlin first. We are still in Schwanenwerder but at the end of the month we shall go to Berlin for three months.

Locks of hair from Goebbels children
Tumblr media
Bronze case that belonged to one of Goebbels children's nannies. According to the auction house, this case was a personal gift from Joseph Goebbels to one of their children's nannies. On the top of the case, there is a button bearing a sun wheel swastika. Size of the case: 18x14 cm.
Tumblr media
Inside the case there are six locks of hair from Joseph Goebbels children. Sadly, no more information is given.
source: Ratisbons Auction House. Sadly, there isn't any official document that proves that these six locks of hair truly belonged to the Goebbels children, only the consignor's word.

These 3 photographs have just gone for sale in a German Auction House. They are described as "three previously unpublished recordings showing Rommel with Magda Goebbels and her children as well as Rommel's companions".
Tumblr media
They are inscribed on the back and dated as "September 1942". I find the dating important, because in different picture and footage archives, Erwin Rommel's visit has been dated as of 1942-1943. However, Rommel's visit being dated as September 1942 is very possible, since the footage of Rommel's visit to Goebbels family was included in Joseph Goebbels birthday movie, which was premiered in October 1942.
Cropped close-ups included in the auction's description.

HELP FOR TRANSLATION! 🤞
Hi everybody! I have recently found a handwritten letter by Magda Goebbels for sale. The letter is dated from Nov. 19, 1937, while she was pregnant with Hedda.
Tumblr media
Sadly, in the Auction House’s website, the letter is not fully translated. In the item’s description, the following is mentioned “She mentions her own daughter Hilde, whom she would murder a few years later, adding: '...as soon as mine is out, I will send you a little [?]...' Goebbels speaks of her own pregnancy, as she carried Hedwig Johanna...also murdered by her mother at the age of six.”
Tumblr media
I find this information very interesting and valuable for 2 main reasons: 
1. Apart from this, there are not known letters written by Magda while being pregnant.
2. Most first-hand information we have about the children comes from Joseph’s diaries. However, Magda’s writings on her children are very scarce.
Tumblr media
The main problem I am having with the translation is Magda’s handwriting, which a don’t understand at all.
Here I leave the direct links to the images, so you can see them in full size:

Hi! I saw your post about Magda’s letter a few hours ago and did my best do do a translation of it (except for a few words that I just could not make out for the life of me🫠). I do have a german version in my handwriting written down as well, if you’d like that too, but here’s what I’ve got. I hope this helps😊
My dear happy Mrs. Hess!
I can barely describe how happy I was this morning when I read the happy news of the birth of your son in the newspaper!
I went to Maria immediately with the news and the both of us had tears in our eyes!
Accept my deep and heartfelt congratulations for you, your dear husband and the smallest Hess!
Now the toughest hours are behind you and I hope from the bottom of my heart that it wasn’t too awful.
It is the biggest happiness of a woman but we pay for it with the biggest pain.
The beautiful thing is, that as soon as […], it’s all but forgotten!
How happy you have to be! I can completely relate to it. Back then, when I felt as if the elemental violence of the birth pains should’ve taken my life and I believed to plunge into a deep, deep abyss, I heard the words: “Ha! You’re […] the boy!!”
And from the abyss I climbed into the sky and had to confess with incessant crying:
“You’re the happiest woman in the world! Be aware that there cannot be a more beautiful moment in your entire life!”
This is what I think you must have felt like and I share your happiness that you got to experience it.
The hour in […], when I […] my little Hilde and you were there […] haunted me many times and that’s why my joy was so great when I heard the good news from your husband in the summer, that’s why my thoughts were with you so many times during the past months and that’s why my Mitfreude is so great now!
As soon as I get out of my loneliness and to Berlin, I’ll send you a small token of my Mitfreude.
Until then, I wish the three of you all, all good and the little guy a kiss!
(Hopefully it will be a ‘little guy’ again for me. My small one should come early in May!)
In warm friendship,
your Magda Goebbels
Thank you very much for the translation! This is wonderful! ❤️
Thank you also to user jg-archive, who is currently translating the letter. I am sure that with everybody's help we will finally "decipher" the full letter.

1941
1941 June 8. Letter written by Magda Goebbels to her friend, Marina Chaliapin. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Excerpt in which she mentions her children:
“On May 1st I went to the children, and they were all doing wonderfully. But the house was really too primitive and so I made up my mind and moved the entire household and children, 16 people. I simply rented a large van for 28 people and stowed everything, children, staff, my mother and me. All the luggage, strollers, beds, in short it was like the exodus of the children of Israel!! Now, they are at the Grundlsee…..It's a paradise for the kids! They are doing wonderfully…”

Hi Frida!
I was curious if you know how some of the people who knew the goebbels children well (such as their nanny hubner or their half brother Harald Quandt) reacted to the murder of the children?
Thanks for reading this question
Keep up the amazing work!
Hi! Thank you for your kind words and sorry for my delayed reply. I have been searching and searching to give you a most accurate answer, but I haven't been very successful. =(
Kathe Hubner: I am currently translating her book, and sadly it is more general and trivial than what I had thought. Regarding your question, this is what it was written on the book: "Kathe Hubner has not been able to understand the murder of the children up to date. Whether she has found a way to live with it, only she knows it. Four years after the end of the war, she got the news that her husband had fallen too. She got married again to a man with three children. Fate or coincidence?".
Harald Quandt: according to the book "Eight Days in May: The Final Collapse of the Third Reich": "In British captivity in the Lybian port of Benghazi, Harald Quandt learned via the BBC about the deaths of his mother, stepfather, and half-siblings. There is no record of his reaction, but he is known during his time as a POW to have distanced from his stepfather".
Erna Flegel (German nurse who took care of Goebbels children in the Führerbunker): "The kids were so charming. They played with each other. They should have been allowed to live. They had nothing to do with what was going on. It was impossible. But she (Frau Goebbels) didn't want it. She said: 'I belong to my husband and the children belong to me.' Not to spare one or two of the children was madness, dreadful.”
Brunhilde Pomsel (Joseph Goebbels' secretary) described being “dumbstruck” on hearing the new and declared “I will never forgive Goebbels for what he did to the world or for the fact that he murdered his innocent children”.

Hi Frida! i am currently planning to write a historical fiction about the goebbels children mainly from the perspective of Helga but Hilde wil also have a central role in the book i was wondering if you got information about some details i have been unable to confirm for 100% Do you know any details of the final birthday of hilde? if it was ever celebrated in 45 given the situation? 2: Do you know if Helga learnt english? (read this on IMDB trivia)
Hi! How interesting!
Sorry for my late reply, but I have been trying to find something regarding your questions in my book. Sadly, I couldn't find anything. =(
1. Hilde's birthday: I don't know. In her book, Kathe Hubner describes quite in detail Joseph's and Magda's last birthdays in 1944, as well as Doctor Stoeckel's last birthday celebration in March 1945. However, she jumps from this event to Hitler's birthday on 20 April 1945. She doesn't give any account of Hilde's birthday. I imagine, and this is my personal opinion, that due to the circumstances, they had probably carried out a humble celebration. Probably baked a cake to sang her happy birthday and maybe gave her a humble present... Perhaps a bunch of flowers or a book? I don't know. But the fact that Kathe, being Hilde's nanny doesn't mention anything about her birthday, makes me feel quite confused.
2. I don't know and I can't confirm it 100%. However, I have been searching about this, and some sources assure that children in 1930's Germany were taught English at school. "A hierarchy of European foreign languages was set up in which preference was given to Germanic over Romanic and Slavic languages. This meant that French lost its status as a second language in Germany which, traditionally, had been very high. English became by far the most prominent foreign language in Germany because Nazi ideology saw the English and their language as akin to the "Aryan race"".
Hope this has been helpful and good luck with your work!

1940 Goebbels birthday film
I recently restored Goebbels’ 1940 birthday film I had uploaded some weeks ago to my bitchute channel. I made this video by putting together good quality parts over the full film, which was in a very low quality. The 99% of the clips belong to goebbelschildren_archives Instagram account.
Due to the good quality of this new film, I had to split it into two videos to upload it. You can find it by clicking as follows:

1942
Kaleidoscope given to Helga Goebbels as a birthday gift in 1942.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Inscribed in German: 
“Helga Susanne Goebbels 1/09/1942. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag und alles liebe”. (Helga Susanne Goebbels 1/09/1942. Happy birthday and all the best).
Tumblr media
It was sold on eBay a few weeks ago. I suppose it is a genuine object and it truly belonged to Helga. I wrote to the seller to know more about the item, but sadly didn’t get any answer.
