With great sadness, we received information about the passing of Auschwitz Survivor Marian Turski, historian, journalist, and member of the International Auschwitz Council.
Marian Turski was born on June 26, 1926, as Moshe Turbowicz in Druskininkai. During World War II, he was displaced to the Litzmannstadt ghetto and later deported to Auschwitz. In January 1945, he was evacuated on a “death march” to the Buchenwald camp. He was liberated in Theresienstadt.
He was 98 years old.
We encourage you to listen to Marian Turski's speech, which he delivered on the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the German Nazi camp Auschwitz on January 27, 2020.
"If you are indifferent, you will not even notice it when upon your own heads, and upon heads of your descendants, some another Auschwitz falls from the sky.”

The Centre is deeply saddened by the passing of Yehuda Bauer (1926-2024) earlier this evening.
'He was one of the greatest Holocaust historians of our time & the most compelling orator & teacher, who we looked up to & were guided by.'
