Soirée costumée à l’Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, Berlin, 1920 © Coll. Magnus-Hirschfeld-Gesellschaft
Homosexuals and Lesbians in Nazi Europe
17/06/2021 - 28/03/2022
Mémorial de la Shoah
17, rue Geoffroy l'Asnier
75004 Paris
www.memorialdelashoah.org/
The exhibition’s main focus is France and Germany but it puts the Nazi regime’s persecution of homosexuals into a European context and takes a long view, from the earliest homosexual movements in the late 19th century to the most recent steps towards remembrance. Life stories bear witness to the varying fates that befell homosexual men and women, who were sometimes Jews, members of the resistance, or even nazi sympathizers.
