Type of Organization or Mission: The Auschwitz Jewish Center is an affiliate of the Museum of Jewish Heritage: A Living Memorial to the Holocaust and is located in Oswiecim, Poland, less than two miles from Auschwitz and Birkenau. Opened to the public in September 2000, the Auschwitz Jewish Center began as a venue of solace, reflection and prayer for visitors. It is a representation of life juxtaposed against the death of the camps. The Center works to individualize the enormity of the near destruction of the Polish-Jewish community through a tangible exhibition. Over the years it has emerged into an institution of exhibition, memorial, and active education. The Center continues to support the expansion of the educational center which houses a library and genealogical research room, meeting rooms, exhibitions, and the synagogue.
