Yesterday there was the night of the ‘Illuminated Synagogues’ to remember the victims of the November pogroms in 1938. To bring the destroyed synagogues to our minds, every former place was illuminated with a bright spot. The lights were accompanied by a voice installation reading the names of the victims and sounds of breaking glass.
