After the fall of Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, The Butcher of Warsaw Ghetto, Juergen Stroop, who had led its suppression, had personally presided over the blowing up of the Great Synagogue, declaring that it will symbolise the “victory over the Jewry”. He was wrong.

On the anniversary of the Synagogue’s destruction on the 16th of May, we would like to remind you about our project, “The Great Synagogue Restores Memory”, which had virtually recreated the Great Synagogue on the the very spot where it once stood, this proving that the remembrance can conquer death and destruction.
