Une petite synagogue dont les murs intérieurs sont recouverts des noms de près de 80 000 juifs de Bohême et de Moravie qui ont péri pendant l'Holocauste. Émotion garantie

Les noms des victimes sur les murs et les dessins des enfants de l’Holocauste m’ont beaucoup affectée. Surtout leurs dessins : dès que je les ai vus, j’ai ressenti une souffrance au fond de moi.

Very moving
