This exhibition displays major historical aspects of the Holocaust. Known in Hebrew as the Shoah, the Holocaust was a total and systematic genocide, between 1933 and 1945 in Europe by Nazi Germany and its collaborators. Their aim, complete annihilation of the Jewish people through mass extermination.
Stop by this afternoon and allow these large panels bring the past to the present and enable you to further understand the Holocaust. Remember the victims and resistors through first person accounts of not only persecution, but the resilience of survival.
This exhibit also contains special additions with stories of Holocaust Survivors from Champaign-Urbana. We are grateful to the Illini Hillel for the use of this exhibit. This exhibit was created by Yad Vashem.
