This exhibition, launching in February 2023 at The Wiener Holocaust Library as part of the Holocaust and Genocide Research Partnership, will examine Holocaust-era correspondence for evidence of how people understood what was happening to them as events of the Holocaust unfolded. Through letters held by the Library and in private collections, the exhibition will uncover how people exchanged information across borders, in defiance of censors and in the midst of chaos, deportations and destruction. How did survivors and relatives preserve or come to possess letters from the wartime period, and how did these seemingly ordinary objects transform into precious symbols of what was lost?

Efforts to analyse and commemorate the death marches continue to this day.  Learn more.
