A traveling exhibition of original documents, photographs and items collected and hidden by Emanuel Ringelblum and other members of his underground movement. Through their secret activities, Ringelblum’s group (code-named “Oneg Schabbat”) sought to record the history of Polish Jews under German occupation, and document their persecution, resistance and self-assertion in the ghettos and camps. Includes pictures of the group’s members, and brief descriptions of their activities and fates. Introductory essay by Ruta Sakowska. Basic entries. 50 items. |
| Description |
The exhibition was jointly organized by the Museum Judengasse Frankfurt and the Żydowski Instytut Historyczny (ZIH), and represents the first showing of the Ringelblum Archives to the German public. |
