  2. Seize the moment! Let's get out of the 'perform Holocaust memory for the gentiles' business altogether. We could have 5 museums instead of 5,000.

    "#Jewish cultural and #Holocaust #museums in #Amsterdam are facing declining visitor numbers and financial problems attributed to a rise in anti-#Israel sentiment because of the #Gaza war.

    At the #JewishMuseum, which opened in the 1930s and had its collection plundered by #German occupiers in the Second #WorldWar, there were 105,000 visitors in 2023. The following year — after the #October7 attacks on Israel by #Hamas — the figure dropped to about 86,000, and last year it fell further to 65,000.

    Visitor figures for the #NationalHolocaustMuseum, which opened in March 2024, decreased by 11 per cent last year.

    “We are not on the verge of collapse,” #EmileSchrijver, director of Amsterdam’s Jewish cultural quarter, which includes four museums, told Het Parool newspaper. “But we cannot continue financially as we are now."

    If you’re visiting Kraków, the exhibition is on at the Galicia Jewish Museum until April 2023: galiciajewishmuseum.org/en/wys
