"Open your heart, visitor. And your mind. And your soul. As you walk through the exhibition "SHOAH" and are enveloped by the sights and sounds of the past, hear the voices of the victims, see the drawings of the children, touch the names of the murdered." - Elie Wiesel. Join us on a virtual tour of "Shoah" the permanent exhibition in Block 27 at the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum, where we will heed Elie Wiesel's call. The tour will explore the central themes of the Holocaust, offer insights into the rich Jewish life that existed prior to 1939, the world of children during the Shoah and the monumental Book of Names.


The tour is guided by Orit Margaliot, Director, Educational Guiding Department, professional development and curricula, Educational Guiding Department ,Yad Vashem
