Recovering the memory of a hidden aspect of World War II
The exhibition presents stories of Greek forced labourers from the district of Magnesia
who were deported to labour camps in the Third Reich.
Their experiences of often inhumane exploitation are part of European history.
However, until recently, this history had not been recorded or studied.
The research on which the exhibition is based sheds light on the difficult and emotionally charged journeys of our fellow citizens through oral testimonies, archival documents, rare photographs, and objects.
Through the voices of six protagonists, the exhibition intends to strengthen empathy and respect
for these "forgotten" victims of Nazism.
