Virtual Tour of the Exhibition "Shoah" at the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum

"Open your heart, visitor. And your mind. And your soul. As you walk through the exhibition "SHOAH" and are enveloped by the sights and sounds of the past, hear the voices of the victims, see the drawings of the children, touch the names of the murdered." - Elie Wiesel. Join us on a virtual tour of "Shoah" the permanent exhibition in Block 27 at the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum, where we will heed Elie Wiesel's call.
