#WhatTheyFound and #HolocaustMemorialDay has really helped the archive. Clearly the 80th anniversary has been at the forefront. It’s incredible what we know now that we didn’t for the 75th. Thanks to David Baddiel for the exposure. Drop us a line if you’d like to learn more.
80 years ago today, (the 12th April, 1945), a truce. The very first allied soldier entered the camp, to ensure the truce was not a trick. The liberation itself, with service personnel and ultimately assistance, would take a couple more days. #belsen David Baddiel Simon Schama
The response for #belsen80 has been incredible. Thank you. Our email, mainly from X, is pretty full. We’ll respond to every single one in due course. 80 years on and we still learn. #belsen #holocaust David Baddiel Daniel Finkelstein
