"On Auschwitz" (61): History of education at the Auschwitz Memorial

Education at the Auschwitz Memorial has been carried out since
the Museum was established in 1947, and the first guides were
Survivors who told visitors about the tragic history of the camp
from their personal perspective. It was due to the efforts of the
Survivors that the International Center for Education about
Auschwitz and the Holocaust was established in 2005. Krystyna
Oleksy, the first director of the Education Center, discusses its
beginnings, the first educational projects, and significant
challenges.
