This is an interactive multimedia exhibition driven by survivor testimony, focusing on 16 children and young people who survived Nazi persecution across Europe in the 1930s and 1940s. See personal photos, artefacts and documents, together with an original prisoner uniform and other items from the concentration camps at Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora. The survivors reveal their experience of discrimination, persecution, escape, hiding, ghettos, forced labour, concentration camps and liberation.
