The Holocaust was a dark period in human history during World War II, where six million Jews were systematically persecuted and murdered by Nazi Germany. It was orchestrated by the Nazi Party, led by Adolf Hitler, targeting Jewish communities across Europe. Ghettos were established to segregate and oppress Jews, and the SS played a crucial role in executing Hitler's brutal plans. Heinrich Himmler was a key figure in the SS, enforcing Nazi policies, including the Nuremberg Laws that stripped Jews of their rights. Survivor testimonies like Rita Levi-Montalcini, Moshe Bejski, and Peretz Hochman offer firsthand accounts of resilience and survival amidst the horrors of the Holocaust. This website aims to educate and commemorate the victims of this genocide, ensuring that we never forget the atrocities committed. #WeRemember
