Agreement on joint exhibition at Yugoslav Pavilion in Auschwitz signed
Belgrade/Paris,
25 January 2024
The agreement was signed at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, in the presence of UNESO Director-General Audrey Azoulay.
The Yugoslav exhibition, set up in 1963 in Block 17 of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum in Poland, was taken down in 2009, with the idea of setting up a new exhibition according to modern standards, but it has not been returned to this day.
The agreement, which was signed today by the representatives of Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, the Republic of North Macedonia and Slovenia, with the coordination of UNESCO, envisages the joint financing of the renovation and conservation of the first floor of Block 17 and common rooms and structures shared by the former Yugoslav republics with Austria.
Also, the agreement envisages the joint financing of the costs of implementing a joint permanent exhibition at the place of remembrance of the victims from the territory of the former Yugoslavia in the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp and extermination camp.
On this occasion, the artistic vision of the future exhibition was presented by Daniel Libeskind and Henri Lustiger-Thaler from Studio Libeskind, with the support of the Hermann Foundation.
