This exhibition is based on the Journal of Hélène Berr, a
young Jewish French woman, whose promising future
was cut short by Vichy laws and the extermination plan
of the Nazis. Berr was 21 years old when she began
writing her Journal. We follow her steps through the
German Occupation, until her arrest and deportation to
Auschwitz in 1944.
