Title: To Bear Witness
Description: Yad Vashem, The Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Authority, was established by a Knesset law to constitute the center for the memories of the entire Jewish people. Its new museum cluster was constructed so as to be able to renew its capacity in every generation and respond to new needs, mediating between the old world that was destroyed and life rebuilt. This book leads the reader through the events at Yad Vashem. It is not only a story of the Jews but of humankind, with personal stories, documents, works of art, films and thousands of photographs of a world that is no more. Some of the material is published for the first time.
