The launch of a new online photo collection of the Holocaust in Hungary

We were asked to share this new and innovative project with the readers of the Hungarian Free Press, and we are happy to do so. A website called HolokausztFoto.hu is being launched on June 21, 2019 at 4:30 p.m. in Budapest’s Nappali Kávéház (Vasvári Pál utca 3) with the participation of historian András Lenárt, journalist János Dési and Miklós Tamási of Fortepan.hu, along with several experts on the Holocaust in Hungary, notably Katalin Jalsovszky, András Heisler, Zsuzsanna Toronyi, Béla Rásky, Szilvia Czingel and Marcell Kenesei.

This new public history project aims to grow into the largest collection of photographs of the Holocaust in Hungary and also hopes to collect essential information about each photo. We’re very pleased to share the information below with our readers and hope that some may be able to participate.
