Why This Is Important
Holocaust education is of utmost importance as it helps us understand the horrors of the past and reminds us to never repeat them. It teaches us about the dangers of prejudice, discrimination, and hatred, and inspires us to promote empathy, inclusivity, and respect for diversity. By learning about the Holocaust, we can also honor the memory of its victims and survivors and ensure that their stories are never forgotten.
Feeling As If You’re There
The VR headsets enable you to be present at the camp. You can look 360° around you and even gain a bird's-eye-view with the help of a drone hovering above. You feel the earth and see the ashes. You're physically there; you hear your own footsteps. Follow the guide as he makes his way from the crematoria to the showers, from the barracks to the train tracks to the lineup area. Touch the wooden bunks. Experience the same emotional impact experienced by those who travel to Poland.
The moving tour of the camp is accompanied by the professional, fascinating explanation of Rabbi Yisrael Goldwasser, an internationally acclaimed speaker on the subject of the Holocaust.
