This interactive experience allows you to engage with survivor testimony in a unique way. Instead of listening to a personal account chronologically, you choose from one of 18 common questions – and select the Holocaust survivor to answer it. This gives you the chance to see the similarities and differences in the survivors’ answers.

Based on student and visitor interactions with our survivors over the years, our education team has carefully curated 18 commonly asked questions.
So you now have the chance to select the question you’re most interested in – and the survivor you’d like to answer it. This will allow you to deepen your engagement and conceptual understanding.
Plus, you’ll get to compare each response – and appreciate the different circumstances of each survivor’s experience.
To help you plan your visit and make the most of your experience at our museum, we’ve put together some important information for school groups.
At the MHM, we are committed to providing a child-safe environment. We support and respect all children and young people – and their safety and wellbeing are our priority.
Our practices are inspired by Holocaust victim Henryk Goldszmit, who published the ‘Declaration of Children’s Rights’ in 1928 under the pen name Janusz Korczak.
I was really touched by how engaged my students were with each of the responses and the empathy generated in the room. You have created a real treasure and we were privileged to enter into the sacredness of their experiences. The interactive experience is easy to use, attractive and so accessible.”
