At the end of this year 2023 begins the new exhibition Riss: the Papon trial as part of the 25th anniversary of this historic trial and which presents never-before-exhibited sketches. Also continuing are the exhibitions Music in the Nazi camps, Julia Pirotte, photographer and resistance fighter and Year 1943: the Warsaw ghetto and the creation of the CDJC.

In the cycle Grands Témoins, we honour the word of survivors of the Shoah through meetings, screenings and testimonies, including that of Ginette Kolinka as a preview for the publication of the comic strip Adieu Birkenau. The story of Ginette Kolinka, Auschwitz survivor. Other previews are to be found during the Month of the documentary film, A writer in hell. The Benevolent of Jonathan Littell by Jean-Christophe Klotz, and Insurgents! by Rafael Lewandowski.

The cycle of History in the Present, dedicated to the year 1943, concludes with three meetings which analyse the fate of the Jews in the former Italian zone, the extermination centre of Sobibor in the general government of Poland and the rescue of the Jews in Denmark.

The Grands Rendez-vous of the auditorium explore literary and documentary news as well as war photography yesterday and today, while numerous memory trails, workshops and trips await young and old, individuals and groups, families and schools.

We hope to meet you at one of these events, either at the Memorial or online and live on our website and social networks, to enjoy this cultural offer that makes the Memorial a place of life, reflection and indispensable education.
