The film below documents the Museum's development
from its groundbreaking in 2007 and includes footage of volunteers
building the replica of the 17th-century Gwoździec Synagogue, a keystone
of the Core Exhibition. The film is a succinct and engaging portrait of
an enormous work in progress, including breathtaking helicam views of
the building exterior.
The Museum of the History of Polish Jews, is built on the site of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. This museum will honor and celebrate 1,000 years of Jewish life and culture in Poland.
In the film, Dr Elie Wiesel explains why the Museum, opening in 2013, is so important:
The Museum is a geographical place of memory, and you cannot be in the place of the Ghetto Uprising and not feel something very deep. There were 1,000 years of Jewish history in Poland; 1,000 years of activity, of extraordinary aspirations and endeavors and dreams and metamorphoses; 1,000 years, which must be studied and communicated and shared.
