'Memoria' is an online magazine dedicated to the history of Auschwitz, the Holocaust as well as memory and education around the world.

“Ecce Homo – The Person and the Face” is the title of an exhibition by Dr. Artur Kapturski, opened at the Auschwitz Museum hostel. The exhibition presents over 650 oil paintings, portraits of prisoners of the German Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz. The works are based on preserved registration photographs from the Museum Archives.

We remind visitors that the Auschwitz Museum is closed to the public on 25 December and 1 January. We also appeal to all visitors to exercise caution regarding external tour offers.

Starting from October 9, the Auschwitz Museum hosts an exhibition of the Prussian Blue painting series by the artist Yishai Jusidman. This is the first large-scale contemporary art exhibition at the Museum. Nearly 50 works, which have not yet been displayed in Europe, are displayed in the rooms of Block 21 at the former Auschwitz I camp.

The International Center for Education about Auschwitz and the Holocaust invites you to a webinar titled “Auschwitz: Holocaust and the Memory of the Victims”, which will take place on 22 January. The webinar will be held on the Zoom platform and will be simultaneously translated into English.

On 27 January 2026, we will commemorate the 81st anniversary of the liberation of the German Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz. The event is held under the honorary patronage of the President of the Republic of Poland, Karol Nawrocki.
