Join us for an overview of the history of the Wiener Holocaust Library. Based in Bloomsbury, the Library is one of the world’s leading and most extensive archives on the Holocaust, the Nazi era and genocide. The Library’s unique collection of over one million items includes published and unpublished works, press cuttings, photographs and eyewitness testimony.

This talk will bring to life poignant refugee stories from the Library’s rich collection, focusing on Holocaust survivors who found new beginnings in Camden. Through an exploration of historical documents from family archives, we will trace their incredible journeys and the resilience that carried them through unimaginable hardships. Don't miss this enlightening opportunity to uncover the powerful narratives preserved within the Wiener Holocaust Library.

Yasmin Gledhill is Digital Engagement and Community Outreach Officer at the Wiener Holocaust Library.
