Nathan Hausner, a young hiking enthusiast from Czechoslovakia, travelled extensively and documented the places he visited by attaching metal emblems of each place to his walking stick. His daughter, Vera Pe'er donated the stick.
Vera, born in Prague in 1939, was placed in a Red Cross children's home by her parents, Valerie and Nathan Hausner, after war broke out. The young parents were deported to the Lodz Ghetto where they were murdered. Vera was sent to Theresienstadt. She survived and after the war she was found by her uncle Max, Nathan's brother. Max and his wife Fritzi adopted Vera and she grew up as their daughter.
On his deathbed, Max told his daughter who her biological parents were and Vera preserved her father's walking stick.
