The story of 11-year-old Simon, who managed to escape from the deportation train, is the central character of the visit. A guide introduces you to Simon. Who was he? When did he live? Where did he live? Then, you find out more about Simon's story in small groups. That is how you put together your own exhibition. After that, the guide takes you on a walk in and around the museum and Memorial, and this is followed by a brief evaluation and time to reflect on different themes: Refugees, Jewish identity, war, exclusion, freedom, resistance, rights of children, commemoration.Materials used:
