Description

IPN exhibition "Righteous Among the Nations" tells the story of bravery and tragedy of Jews from the Małopolska Province and Poles helping them in the grim days of the German Nazi occupation during the Second World War. Created in 2008, the exhibition has been so far displayed in many locations, including Warsaw, Cracow, and Tel Aviv. It is now coming to London at the invitation of the Embassy of the Republic of Poland.

In spite of ubiquitous terror, numerous repressions and mutual antagonisms separating the Polish and Jewish communities, there were Poles who decided to help Jews survive the German occupation. Doing so, they risked their lives as well as the lives of their closest relatives.

The exhibition will be open from 10 November until 15 December in London Jewish Cultural Centre, Ivy House, 94-96 North End Road, London, NW11 7SX.

The ceremonial openieng of the exhibition will take place on Monday, 18 November 2013 at 3:00 pm.
