Appeal for financial support for the Auschwitz Memorial
The period of the pandemic
has proved exceptionally difficult for the Auschwitz Memorial,
as it has been closed to visitors since 12 March and hence deprived of its primary source of financing.
Therefore, we wish to ask everyone for whom the preservation of memory is important for financial support to allow us to continue with numerous educational, research, exhibition and publishing projects.
