The guided tour offers participants the opportunity to discover the history of the Holocaust through in-depth explanations from our guides. The knowledge and the anecdotes they share allow participants to learn more about the objects and testimonies presented in our permanent exhibition and to humanize the victims of the Holocaust.

The self-guided tour allows participants to discover the Museum’s permanent exhibition on their own (without a guide). After a brief introduction by one of our front desk agents, participants can explore, at their own pace, the history of Jewish communities before, during and after the Holocaust. For groups who are interested, an activity sheet provides historical context and focuses the visit on certain objects in the exhibition.

KEY TOPICS : STAGES OF GENOCIDE – RESISTANCE
In this workshop, participants will discover the story of Avrum Feigenbaum and his family during the Holocaust. The Feigenbaum family lived in Lodz, Poland, before the war. After the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany, the family was imprisoned in the ghetto where Avrum’s father died from starvation. The rest of the family was successively deported to Auschwitz. Out of seven family members, only Avrum and his brother, Hersh, survived.
Through analyzing primary sources (documents and testimonies), participants will better understand the different stages of genocide, as well as how Avrum and his family resisted at every stage.
This workshop was designed to complement the teacher’s guide Studying Genocide.

A survivor testimony adds a personal dimension to the history of the Holocaust and the millions of victims. It puts students in direct personal contact with a complex and incomprehensible part of history.
