Arnold David Koller was born on July 15, 1924 in Berlin.
The family lived at Grosse Hamburger Strasse 18-19 in the Mitte district of Berlin.
At the end of 1938, at the age of only 14, Arnold David emigrated alone to the Netherlands, where he wanted to prepare for life in Palestine in a training camp. This training came to an end when German troops invaded the Netherlands in May 1940.
On October 3, 1942, Arnold David Koller was deported to the Westerbork camp. From there he was deported to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp on January 11, 1944. He was deported from Bergen-Belsen to the Neuengamme concentration camp on November 23, 1944, where he was murdered four days later on November 27, 1944.
His parents and siblings were deported to Poland in 1939, from where they managed to escape through the Soviet Union to Palestine, arriving in 1946.
