Albine Pallaoro
Albine Pallaoro (nee; Hunner) was a female guard at the Mauthausen and Ravensbruck camps during the final phase of World War II.
Albine was born in Linz a. d. Donau (Linz on the Danube) on December 4, 1916 as Albine Hunner. She later married. On September 15, 1944 she reported to Mauthausen camp to undergo guard training. Eventually she worked as an Aufseherin in the camp kitchen, overseeing several women prisoners there. Some time later Albine was one of several female overseers who accompanied a transport of women to the Ravensbruck camp near Berlin. She stayed there until the Soviets neared the camp. Albine has never been charged with being a member of an SS affiliate, which was declared to be a criminal organization after the war.
