• Passover Seder Service : Deutsches Theatre Restaurant, Munich, Germany, April 15-16, 1946 : conducting Chaplain Abraham J. Klausner / [sider ṿe-tsiyer Y.D. Shainzon].

Curatorial Notes:

• Known as the “Survivors’ Haggadah,” this Haggadah was published by Holocaust survivors to celebrate the first Passover after liberation. The text and illustrations interweave the story of the Holocaust with the traditional Haggadah text. It also takes an activist role, calling desperately for a “Survivors’ Exodus” from displaced persons camps in Europe to the Land of Israel, where their lives and the lives of the Jewish people will be rebuilt.
