New English language edition of Auschwitz Memorial monthly magazine

11-01-2011

November is the month during which we commemorate two sad anniversaries. November 22, 1940 the first execution by firing squad was held in Auschwitz. A year later, November 11—Polish Independence Day—the Germans held executions at the Death Wall in the courtyard of Block 11 using a silenced small caliber weapon. We are able to recount these events now through the testimony of witnesses as well as archival documents.

In the November Oś, you will also find information about online courses prepared by the International Center for Education about Auschwitz and the Holocaust, an article devoted to the visit of students and professors from Voronezh at the Center for Dialogue and Prayer, and a report from the Polish-German seminar intended for organizers of study visits to memorial sites.

The pages dedicated to the Jewish Center include the reflections of a participant of the program "Why do we need tolerance?".
