Gymnasium and high school for boys
Gymnasium and high school students were typically between 14 and 20 years old. A gymnasium student in September 1941 was likely born between 1921 and 1927.
The gymnasium and high school for boys was located on Otylii. The street name was changed to Ottilienstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Otylii and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
We believe Dawid Zylbersztajn was a student at a gymnasium and high school for boys located on Otylii which later changed to Ottilenstrasse when German occupating began in 1939. HIs ghetto address was Hamburger 15 37 and tthen he movied to Kilinski 46. We also believe his D-M code was 374879. Also, we have reason to believe that Benjamin Zylbersztajn was his father since he was born in 1898 and was a resident in lodz. His address was 15 Flat 37 Hamburger Strasse which is also Dawid Zylbersztajn's address.
Approver Comment:
I agree with your reasoning--in 1941, he would have been 16 years old, an appropriate age to have been attending Gymnasium when he signed the album. Thanks for including the addresses, too.
Information on his father should go in stage 2.
