70 years ago, in 1945, a great evil was confronted and defeated on the battlefields of World War II. However, behind those battle lines, an even darker element of the war was being encountered by the liberating soldiers.

On January 27, 1945, Soviet forces liberated Auschwitz. Every year, this date is marked as International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. Join us for an emotional and insightful evening as we hear from Holocaust survivors who will share their stories of fear, suffering, and liberation.

This event will launch The National WWII Museum's "Year of Remembrance," focusing on the 70th Anniversary of the Liberations that took place around the world as a result of the Allied victory. The Museum will host various programs that explore the last year of the war in regards to the Holocaust by examining the survivors, liberators, and perpetrators. This program will honor and memorialize those who suffered through the Holocaust as well as those who helped to end it by liberating the camps of Europe.

Reservations are required. For more information please call 504-528-1944 x 412.
