Potsdam Museum Launches VR Exhibit to Preserve Holocaust Testimonies

The Brandenburg Museum uses virtual reality to offer immersive experiences with Holocaust survivors, ensuring their stories endure.

The Brandenburg Museum for Future, Present, and History in Potsdam has opened a new exhibition called 'In Echt? – Virtuelle Begegnung mit NS-Zeitzeug:innen'.
The exhibit features virtual reality interviews with five Holocaust survivors who experienced the Nazi era as children or teenagers.
Visitors can use VR technology to interact with 3D recordings of survivors, providing a sense of personal engagement with their stories.
The exhibition aims to maintain Holocaust remembrance as the number of living survivors dwindles over time.
Workshops and educational programs accompany the exhibit, recommended for visitors aged 14 and older.
