Through film footage of Nazi rallies, recordings of Hitler's speeches, Nazi political posters, and newspaper articles, the exhibit immerses the visitor in the sensations and sentiments underlying the Holocaust. The next part of the exhibition, the Final Solution, 1940-44, deals frankly with a brutal and deeply disturbing subject. With films of horrific medical experiments done to Jewish prisoners and models of death camps, the exhibition details the Nazis' systematic murder of six million Jews. Voices of Auschwitz, a contemporary documentary, puts personal voices behind the mass murders at the Nazi death camps. Survivors recount their harrowing experiences during the Holocaust.
Films show British, Russian, and American troops entering the German death camps.
The mass graves and starving prisoners are terrifying images to view. The permanent exhibition ends with the octagonal Hall of Remembrance. The hall provides a much-needed space for quiet reflection. The room's eternal flame, like the rest of the museum, is a memorial to the victims of the Holocaust. Designed specifically to tell the story of the Holocaust to children, this exhibition follows one boy and his family through the period.
