One of the unique phenomena of the Holocaust period was the rescue of Jewish children in France: a network of protective homes established by different organizations, both Jewish and Christian, whose members collected children and brought them to remote places, in order to protect them from persecution and enable them to live a normal life under abnormal circumstances. Thanks to this rescue endeavor, thousands of Jewish children were saved. This is a story of courage and determination, a story of sacrifice, loyalty and dedication.
The exhibition 'Children's Homes in France During the Holocaust' tells the story of three children's homes: the home in Chamonix, the home in Izieu, and the home in Chabannes. Click Here to enter: www.yadvashem.org/yv/en/exhibi...
