Holocaust Remembrance Day Special Ceremony
January 27, 2025 @ 12:00 pm, ending 2:00 pm
Free
On Holocaust Remembrance Day, January 27th, the American Heritage Museum will commemorate the induction of a special film that will be shown from inside a WWII railcar from the Deutsche Reichsbahn. The purpose is to provide visitors with a direct connection into the terrors of the Holocaust and how Nazi Germany’s anti-Semitism led inexorably to genocide.
We are solemnly inviting you to participate in the dedication program which will include the reciting of the Kaddish, lighting memorial candles, and remembrance of the Holocaust and the people who perished during this horrible time. The dedication ceremony will start at 1:00pm and last roughly a half hour. The Museum will be open and free to attend from 12:00pm to 2:00pm.
We believe this exhibit will serve as a powerful symbol that connects visitors with the stark reality of the Holocaust. Standing before this relic, one can imagine the unimaginable – the inhuman conditions, the fear, the uncertainty, and the sheer terror that innocent men, women, and children endured as they were transported to the death camps. The rail car and film are a tangible reminders of the suffering and dehumanization inflicted upon millions.
Additionally, going forward, the rail car will serve as a focal point for discussions about bystander apathy, collaboration, and the moral responsibilities of individuals and institutions when hatred is left unchecked.
If you are planning to attend, please RSVP by email at this link to admin@americanheritagemuseum.org – thank you.
