Yad Vashem Visits the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum

20-07-2001

The latest in a series of seminars organized by the Museum for educators from the Yad Vashem Memorial Institute in Israel has begun. Group exchanges between the two institutions have been underway for several years.

They are aimed at exchanging experience on Holocaust education and learning more about each others' countries. Aside from lectures about the history of the Auschwitz death camp and the conflict between Polish and Jewish memory, the two-week seminar also features visits to Niedzica, Cracow, Pszczyna, and Warsaw.
