Albert Einstein left Germany for Belgium in 1933. While out of the country, he heard about the upcoming Jewish boycott, and so decided not to return. Naturally, there was no way to predict the upcoming Holocaust, but he did see that Germany was going into a dangerous direction. The Associated Press reported on April 1st, 1933 that his home was raided and his daughter, still in Germany at the time, had been mistreated.

Old answers:

No, Einstein left Germany before the holocaust.

He went back to Germany, during the holocaust and helped 200 Jews escape to America. So no, he was not forced to leave because of the holocaust. He left before any of that was happening.

He went to visit America when Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, and decided not to go back for a while.
