Delve deeply into Holocaust history

The Sydney Jewish Museum (SJM) is leading a significant and profound European tour next year, taking in key Jewish and Holocaust sites in Berlin, Warsaw, Lublin, Lodz and Krakow.

The tour offers an opportunity for participants to take their interest in Holocaust history to a deeper level, learn the personal stories behind historic sites and connect with other participants.

Like the work of the museum itself, this tour is more important than ever. With hateful rhetoric that echoes this haunting past now entering the mainstream – notably the recent neo-Nazi rally outside Parliament House in Sydney – it is a timely reminder of the importance of learning from history.

The SJM’s 2026 Berlin and Poland tour is led by expert educators, foremost among them the museum’s head of education Sandy Hollis, who has led many similar tours.

“Each of the 13 previous tours I’ve led has been remarkable in its own way,” said Hollis.
