Encyclopedia of the Shoah

The multimedia encyclopedia of the Shoah gathers more than 300 articles on the history of the destruction of the Jews of Europe. Each entry, which deals with an aspect of the Shoah, is illustrated by photos, video testimonies, objects, maps (animated or fixed), individual destinies.

Produced in partnership with the Washington Holocaust Memorial Museum, the multimedia encyclopedia of the Shoah is regularly enriched by new articles dealing with the French specificity of the Shoah.

The anti-Semitic legislation of the Vichy government, the fate of the Jews in the major cities of France, the institutions set up by the French State (U.G.I.F., C.G.Q.J., I.E.Q.J.), the trials of the collaborators, the French internment camps, count among the soon-to-be available items.

Several tools complete this exceptional database: A comparative chronology, a summary of key dates of the genocide, A glossary, accessible from all screens of the site of the Shoah Memorial, a selection of reference texts.
