Yad Vashem

Yad Vashem has just started sharing his huge archive with picutres from Holocaust. Here is one. Click here to see more. I found only four from Sniatyn.

I've started exploring their Central Database of Shoah Victims' Names. Here is Sniatyn.

Koń jaki jest każdy widzi

I jak to zinterpretować? Czy konie też mają tożsamość?

About us

This project looks at the continuities and discontinuities in narratives about the past of the western Ukrainian town of Sniatyn. It will focus on different ways, or indeed paths, in which representatives of different ethnic groups, living both in the town and elsewhere, see Sniatyn before it was marred by the Holocaust and deportations. We will explore how Ukrainians, Jews, and Poles created respective images of pre-war Sniatyn and how recent changes there can bring these different paths together. This project will focus on studying individual experiences, both those lived through personally and handed on in families and those that make up part of the narratives about the towns past as portrayed by public institutions. We will look at the impact of pilgrimages, visits of people with roots in Sniatyn as well as international initiatives and how under their influence the cultural memory of town is changing. Museums will be key institutions both for research and the later presentation of the projects results.
