  • Our Family of Survivors

Our Family of Survivors

Since the Centre opened in 1995, many Holocaust survivors have shared their stories to a whole range of audiences. We have endeavoured to capture their testimony, secure their artefacts and gather historical information about each of them in order to preserve their memory and ensure its longevity.  We want to use this opportunity to thank every individual who has spoken and who continues to speak.

Below, you will find a page for each of our survivors.

We are adding new pages regularly.
