Pavel Batel & team
Pavel Batel dedicated two decades to intensive research and trained a team of professional guides. Collecting testimonies from Holocaust survivors and eyewitnesses is crucial for preserving the memory of the past and ensuring that the horrors of the Shoa are never forgotten. Interviewing survivors "behind closed doors" is especially important, as it allows them to share their most personal and painful memories in a safe and private environment.
