Jewish Life in NRW before 1933 and the Consequences of the Holocaust

The traveling exhibition "Jewish Neighbors" is on display at the Langendreer Library in Bochum. It focuses on Jewish life in North Rhine-Westphalia before National Socialism and shows the consequences of persecution and the Holocaust for Jewish people and their communities.

At the center is the remembrance of Jewish neighbors and their living environments in North Rhine-Westphalia. The exhibition makes visible that Jewish life was a part of everyday society before the National Socialist regime. At the same time, it addresses the profound changes caused by exclusion, persecution, and annihilation.

Jewish Life and the Consequences of the Holocaust

Visitors gain insights into the time before 1933 and the consequences that persecution and the Holocaust had for Jewish people in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Visiting the exhibition at the Langendreer Library offers an opportunity to engage with the content in a calm environment. The exhibition is aimed at everyone who wants to learn more about Jewish history in North Rhine-Westphalia, about neighborhood and coexistence, as well as remembrance of the victims of the Holocaust.
