March of Remembrance 2014

Written by: Jewish Historical Institute
On 22nd July, on the 72nd anniversary of the beginning of the liquidation of the Warsaw ghetto by the Nazis, on the March of Remembrance, we will walk the streets of the annihilated ghetto, honoring the largest Jewish community of pre-war Europe.

„What we were unable to shout out to the world, we hid under ground. May this treasure end up in good hands, may it live to see better times, may it alert the world.”

(from Dawid Graber’s will)

 

This year’s March is in a special way dedicated to Emanuel Ringelblum, founder of the underground archive of the Warsaw ghetto, and therefore the last stop of the March will be the square in Nowolipki Street where after the war the so-called Ringelblum Archive, the richest source of knowledge of the Holocaust of Polish Jews, was found. 

Program of the March

6pm Inauguration of the March of Remembrance in front of the Umschlagplatz monument.

(the participants will be given ribbons with names of the Victims)

The route will lead through the following streets: Stawki, Karmelicka, Dzielna, Jana Pawła II, Nowolipki 

7:30pm End of the March by the square in Nowolipki Street

From one room to the Internet — The Central Jewish Library
The idea of creating a Central Judaic Library, a library containing any books, writings and documents connected to Judaism, is 155 years old. The collection was modest at first, limited to one room, however before the war it grew to 30 thousand books and its own building. The Central Judaic Library was destroyed during the Holocaust. Now, in the 21st century the CJL exists once more — this time in digital form. This is its history.
