Schindler's factory turned into holocaust museum in Czechia
BRNENEC, CZECH REPUBLIC-MAY 10:A historic site linked to Oskar Schindler, the German industrialist who saved around 1,200 Jews during World War II, has been converted into a museum in the Czech town of Brnenec.
The newly opened "Museum of Survivors" occupies part of the former Low-Beer factory, a textile plant confiscated by the Nazis in 1938.
The restored building, now a memorial and educational center, was inaugurated by Daniel Low-Beer, a British descendant of the original owners, who spearheaded the preservation project.
The museum chronicles the lives of Holocaust survivors who worked under Schindler’s protection after he relocated his enamelware factory to Brnenec (known in German as Brünnlitz) in 1944.
Through personal testimonies, photographs, and artifacts, the exhibition seeks to honor their resilience and ensure their stories are passed to future generations.
The site adds to Czechia’s Holocaust remembrance efforts, joining landmarks like Prague’s Jewish Quarter and the Terezin Memorial. (Footage by Lukas Kabon /Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
