The exhibition Ausgewiesen! in Centrum Judaicum lays his focus on the 80th anniversary of the "Polish Action": On October 28 and 29, 1938, the Nazis arrested some 17,000 Jewish people and deported them to neighbouring Poland because they were Polish citizens. They stayed in improvised shelters for months. Only a few managed to flee and emigrate. Many were murdered in ghettos and camps. Individual fates are traced on the basis of six Berlin family stories. Those of you who are already on site should definitely pay a visit to the new permanent exhibition, which has been reopened just recently, on July 4. Fri, 10 am - 6 pm, Sun, 10 am - 7 pm, entrance 7 / 4.50 € (incl. visit of the dome)
