We receive thousands of visitors annually, including the youngest generation. We provide age-appropriate, hands-on workshops introducing children, ages seven and up, to elements of Jewish traditions, the history of Oświęcim’s Jewish community, and the Holocaust.
Our workshops are crafted to educate and inspire young minds through interactive activities, personal stories, and creative expression. Younger children engage with Jewish traditions and the lives of pre-war Jewish residents of Oświęcim through arts and crafts, transforming abstract facts into tangible connections.

Older children can explore the Old Town of Oświęcim and spark discussions on modern prejudice during tours at the Jewish Museum and group conversations at Café Bergson. These experiences memorialize those who were lost and also leave a lasting impression, equipping children with the knowledge and empathy needed to stand against hatred in any form.
Through these thoughtfully designed programs, we aim to cultivate a compassionate generation motivated to uphold the values of diversity and inclusion. As we guide our young visitors through these historical settings and allow them to connect on an age-appropriate level, we empower them to carry forward the message of “Never Again.”
