In Black and White

The exhibition In Black and White explores Swedish media and the Holocaust – what was written and broadcasted, but also what was erased or edited out. Here, you can also learn more about the spirit of the times, the Swedish media landscape, and the presence of antisemitism.

Untold

Untold begins with the resistance in the Roma section of the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp in 1944 and tells both about the background and the consequences of the genocide. In the exhibition, you will encounter previously unknown testimonies and unique artefacts. What emerges is the scale of the Nazis’ crimes, the story of the few who survived, and the long road to recognition.
