Reviews
Though daunting, the museum presents the legitimacy and importance of these historical events to its audience without sugar-coating events. With quite a large display area, this museum is spectacular, and does well with its donation-based standings. As someone of Polish-Jewish ancestry, I highly recommend this museum a visit.
I am not sure what to say about this experience. Though not as dramatic as I was expecting, I was deeply moved at several points in the display. It is set up so kids can experience it without walking away weeping yet Be impacted. However if you actually read and experience the many videos, it is a moving and worthwhile endeavor. My wife and I took 2 hours to walk through. I appreciate the attempt to have realistic displays of many of the parts that the Jewish people had to go through. I came away feeling disgusted how today we still separate ourselves by color, sexual preferrence... We are one race made up of many different people's. We should embrace our differences. Life is hard enough.
The video in the front room was fantastic. Hearing from the survivors was the best part, and the museum would benefit from incorporating recorded narratives into the displays. Walking through the cattle car is bone chilling. It was interesting (in a horrifying and heartwrenching way) to learn about what happened when the survivors left the camps. Some of the motion-activated lights were not working, and we missed the displays in those spaces.
Quite sobering. A couple of video presentations to get the tour started and the introduction to the Holocaust. You have heard and have probably read about it but to hear it from a survivor and then tour the museum with that information leaves a real impact.
I learned a lot. The 15 minute video at the beginning is moving
