Karkomi Permanent Exhibition 

More than 500 artifacts, documents, and photographs in the Karkomi Permanent Exhibition help illustrate the narrative of the Holocaust, while video testimonies from local survivors add personal detail. A German rail car of the type used in Nazi deportations sits in the center of the building. Learn more about the realities of the Holocaust and the extreme importance of fighting hatred, indifference, and intolerance in the future through this powerfully moving collection.
