Sveriges museum om Förintelsen / The Swedish Holocaust Museum
The Swedish Government decided to establish the Swedish Holocaust Museum within the framework of National Historical Museums. The Holocaust is a defining event in European history, firstly for the millions who were persecuted and murdered, but also for postwar views on humanism and ethics. The establishment of a museum is an acknowledgement that, although not perpetrated on Swedish soil, the Holocaust is very much a part of Sweden’s history and cultural heritage. A key foundation for the museum is the stories of the survivors who came to Sweden. By exhibiting the stories and artefacts donated to the museum, we preserve and pass on the history of Sweden and the Holocaust.
