The International Center for Education about Auschwitz and the Holocaust invites you to the webinar “The SS Garrion in KL Auschwitz.” It will take place on 3 December 2025 on the Zoom platform and will be simultaneously translated into English.
According to Dr. Piotr M. A. Cywiński, Director of the Auschwitz Memorial, the vast cemetery that Auschwitz represents should not become a space for politics during the anniversary of its liberation. He stated in an interview with the Polish Press Agency (PAP) that without the voices of Survivors, the threat of politicisation would hang over the commemoration. He added that he would like political leaders to stand in silence during the ceremony.
On 16 October the travelling exhibition 'Auschwitz. Not Long Ago. Not Far Away' created by the Museum and the Spanish company Musealia was opened in Cincinnati Museum Center located in the historical building of Union Terminal.
On 16 October, the ministers responsible for education in all German states took part in a special online tour of the Auschwitz Memorial through the platform “Auschwitz in Front of Your Eyes.”
