Illustrated Holocaust Glossary

This Illustrated Holocaust Glossary, completed as part of the Fellowship in Holocaust Education at the Imperial War Museum, is free to download and use with students. It is recommended for students of 14 years and above.

Within the glossary are photos and sections of survivor testimony. It also has a special feature on one Holocaust survivor, Zdenka Fantlová. A photo of the suitcase Zdenka used when being transported to Theresienstadt and then to Auschwitz, appeared in a booklet produced by the Guardian in September 2009. Zdenka’s story is about to be published for the first time in the UK on Holocaust Memorial Day 2010.

1-1

Her book is dedicated:

To an unknown member of the British Army,
who, through his humanity, saved my life in
Bergen-Belsen in April 1945.

You can find out more in the glossary. Take time to read it.

In addition, there are links to two questionnaires – one for teachers and one for students. Once you or your students have used the glossary, please spare a few moments to complete the questionnaire. The results will be used to make improvements in any new editions.
