The story of how the remnants of the Holocaust emerged from the abyss of the ghettos and the death camps to rebuild their lives.  

Liberation did not end the agony of Jews. When the survivors returned to their native lands, they found their families destroyed and their homes taken over. Some, as in the pogrom in Kielce, Poland, were brutally murdered. The refugees languished in Displaced Persons’ camps throughout Europe until many were able to immigrate – legally or illegally - to Palestine and return to life.

The unit comprises:

•  20 black-and-white posters (35x50 cm);

• A video of survivors’ testimonies and documentary footage of DP camps and immigration to Israel;

• A teacher’s manual with testimonies, articles, maps and suggestions for class activities.

 Target Audience : Junior and Senior High Schools

Testimonies from one of the most famous trials of the 20^th century.

In Spring 1961, the eyes of the world were focused on Jerusalem and on the trial of Adolf Eichmann, the notorious Nazi leader responsible for the deportation of millions of Jews to the extermination centers. Although arrested at the end of the war, Eichmann succeeded in fleeing to Argentina where he lived for 10 years under an assumed identity. In 1960, the Israeli Mossad kidnapped Eichmann and brought him to stand trial in Jerusalem. The moving accounts of Holocaust victims who testified at the trial have been recorded for posterity.

In 1962, Adolf Eichmann, found guilty of crimes against the Jewish people and humanity, was executed. 

 The unit comprises:

•  A 45 minutes video of the first collection of testimonies from the ten-week trial, produced in cooperation with the Israel State Archives and the Steven Spielberg Film Archives.
