To the 80th anniversary of the liquidation of the Lviv ghetto”, which consists of twelve thematic information stands and describes the terrible crimes of the Nazi regime, which were directed against the Jewish population of Lviv.<\/p>\n

A separate part of the exhibition is dedicated to the rescue action, which was attended by religious figures, monks, nuns and fathers of the UGCC, among whom were the Sheptytskyi brothers – Metropolitan Andrey and Archimandrite Klimentiy, Father Marko Steck and Abbot Joseph Viter.

The Lviv ghetto, which, according to researchers, was the largest in the USSR and the third largest in Eastern Europe. More than 136,000 Jews passed through the Lviv ghetto, but only less than 300 people managed to survive. These terrible statistics are a reminder of the tragic events of the Holocaust and the need to honor the memory of the victims.<\/p>\n
The exhibition will be available for viewing for the next two months.<\/p>\n
