Kristallnacht Commemoration
Join the Montreal Holocaust Museum in commemorating the legacy of Kristallnacht, the pogrom organized by the Nazis on November 9 and 10, 1938. In the years that followed this violent pogrom, millions of Jews became the targets of further persecution and genocide.
On the 84th anniversary of Kristallnacht, learn about two women whose lives were forever changed in its aftermath: Zlatka Pitluk and Fania Fainer, the women behind the remarkable object known as the Heart from Auschwitz. Through the stories of their descendants, Sandy Fainer, Karina Feler, and Paul Pitluk, we invite you to learn more about their resilience building new lives and the lessons transmitted to their loved ones.
