Heads of both institutions, Jacques Fredji and prof. Paweł Śpiewak, have emphasised the importance of cooperation in the area of exchange of experiences, sharing archive resources and education.

Traces of fire from May 16, 1943. Restoration of the historic floor at the JHI
“The former Jewish residential district in Warsaw has ceased to exist. The great action ended with the blowing up of the Warsaw synagogue at 20:15. " Thus, in a report to SS-Obergruppenführer and General of Police Krüger of May 16, 1943, Jürgen Stroop described the demolition of the Great Synagogue in Tłomackie. As a result of the fire, its flames also burst into the neighboring building of the Main Judaic Library, now the seat of the Jewish Historical Institute. Despite the passage of over 75 years, traces of damage can be seen on the floor in the Institute’s hall.

22 July March of Remembrance
This year, the march is dedicated to the memory of Shmuel Zygielbojm, a Bund activist, who made efforts throughout these months to alert the Western public opinion about mass extermination of Jews in occupied Poland. After many months of struggle against the West’s indifference, in act of solidarity with the insurgents of the Warsaw Ghetto, he committed suicide. In the March of Remembrance, we want to bring back the memory about him.
