Though not a Holocaust memorial museum, the Sanford J. Ziff Jewish Museum of Florida is a valuable resource for the study of Jewish identity and culture. The focus of the collection is Jewish Life in Florida since 1763. Of special interest are materials related to the episode of the S.S. St. Louis. This ship, full of Jewish refugees from Germany, set out for Cuba, but was turned away and remained off the coast of Florida until returning to Europe. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Web site contains online versions of several of the Museum's exhibits.
Visitors can also search a database of historic photographs and display the results.
The Museum's Archives and Library are also searchable, but only titles, not the documents themselves, are displayed. Also of interest to teachers are the 50 topical bibliographies related to the Holocaust, assorted fact sheets, and current news items. This site links to over 60 Holocaust memorials on German soil. Each memorial museum site is represented by a short history and several photographs. Click on the small photos to see enlargements.
