Audio Guides
Working in cooperation with Radio Orange 94.0 and the local district administration, this project has developed an audio guide that brings the history of the Jewish community in the 15th District to life. The recollections of 17 survivors who spent their childhood in the quarter and are actively involved in the project revive long silenced memories of the past of the houses and streets of Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus. The audio-guides are also available in English and Hebrew. Information in German >
