About
Permanent exhibition on the National Socialist genocide against the Sinti and Roma at the Documentation and Cultural Centre for German Sinti and Roma in Heidelberg: The documentation, which is displayed on three levels and covers a total area of almost 700 square meters, traces the history of the persecution of the Sinti and Roma under National Socialism. The narrative starts with their gradual exclusion from society, showing how the state deprived them of their rights before proceeding with their systematic extermination in Nazi-occupied Europe. The exhibition takes a close look at the genocide on Sinti and Roma: an unparalleled crime against humanity that was conducted on a scale still unimaginable today.
