Levenberg (Lewenberg) Paul Davidovich (20 January 1922, Halle, Germany) — ghetto prisoner.
In 1939 Paul Levenberg moved to Latvia to work on a local farm within the Hachsharah movement (Askala), preparing young people for life in Palestine. In 1941 he was living in Riga, was imprisoned in the Riga Ghetto, and later deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp. He was liberated; his subsequent fate is unknown (possibly he went to Moscow). His father, David, was a Latvian citizen living in Berlin, from where in 1941 he moved to Moscow after receiving an invitation to work as an engineer at a factory.
