![]() The development of a Holocaust research center in city of Thessaloniki has been a long standing desire of our Community and the fact that the location GAIAOSE SA is providing is exactly the location from where 50.000 Thessaloniki Jews were deported to the concentration camps is a great symbolism. It is expected that the Holocaust Research Center will attract historians and researchers from around the world and become the driving force of development in the area and Thessaloniki in general.
At a time when anti-Semitism and extremism are on the rise throughout Europe, this project will help educate the society, strengthen the collective memory and help combat the phenomena that in the past led humanity to its darkest era.
