We show changing special exhibitions at the memorial, which deal with the history of National Socialism in various ways. Here we provide information about current and planned exhibitions.

Current special exhibitions

The following special exhibitions are currently on display at the Bergen-Belsen Memorial:

“70 Years of the Luxembourg Agreement. Unattainable – Unresolved: Redress for Nazi Injustice.” 

On display from 13 May to 12 July 2026 in the marquee on Anne Frank Square 

The Shoah is the greatest crime against humanity and the darkest chapter in German history. The campaign of extermination waged by the Nazis and their allies resulted in the murder of almost six million Jews, as well as plunder, terror and endless suffering. Seven years after the end of the Holocaust, the Federal Republic of Germany, the State of Israel and the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany came together to negotiate the impossible. After tough negotiations, these three parties concluded an agreement in Luxembourg in September 1952: a historic milestone.

The exhibition traces the history of Jewish material claims following the Shoah, as well as Germany’s efforts to take responsibility for the crimes of National Socialism.
