While COVID-19 may have prevented travel to historical sites around the world, the virtual space has opened up to give viewers an alternative and unique perspective. November 9 – 10, 2021 marks the 83rd anniversary of Kristallnacht or Night of Broken Glass and we invite you to join Jerzy Wójcik, a guide at the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum for over 14 years, who has created an innovative and immersive virtual program that is not just a guided tour, but a narrated history. The online experience includes visiting the place as it is today and as it was 80 years ago. The combination of drone recordings, 3D applications, historical pictures and footage creates an extraordinary learning experience.
Please note that, while the official end time of this webinar is 6:00 pm, an optional Q & A session will be available from 6:00 to 6:30 pm.
This webinar is presented in partnership with the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre of Holocaust Studies.
