Museum Collection

The VHEC maintains a collection of over 1200 items, including documents, photographs, letters and artefacts. The majority of the collection reflects the experiences of local survivors prior to, during and after the Holocaust. These items are preserved for future generations as documentary evidence of the Holocaust and are used for current educational purposes.
