The War Against the Jews May 6, 2007

The Museum's second floor tells the story of Europe's Jews confronting hatred and violence, of communities coping with persecution and isolation and of the struggle to endure the unimaginable. Above all, it is a story of men and women who resolutely fought to preserve their humanity and their heritage. In these galleries, short films present the testimonies of those who lived through the Holocaust. The memory of the war's devastation is also preserved in the silent eloquence of artifacts and photographs.
