Holocaust Museum of Oporto

Holocaust Museum of Oporto, Holocaust museum in Boavista district, Porto, Portugal.

The Holocaust Museum of Porto is an educational center in the Boavista district dedicated to documenting the persecution of Jewish people. The exhibition displays photographs, films, and objects from this period.

The museum opened in 2021, founded by the Jewish Community of Oporto with B'nai B'rith International and Holocaust museums in Moscow, Hong Kong, the United States and Europe. It materialises the government project "Never Forget" and honours Portugal's membership of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. In its first month it received around 10,000 visitors and was named best museum in Porto by TimeOut.

The museum is run by members of the Jewish Community of Oporto whose own parents and grandparents were Holocaust victims; their filmed testimonies are part of the visit. It also holds the guestbooks donated to Yad Vashem and, in November 2021, hosted a ceremony by the International Observatory of Human Rights with two hundred students.

Admission is free and visitors should allow plenty of time to walk through the exhibition. It is helpful to check ahead since the museum closes for religious and national holidays.

The museum preserves reconstructed sections of the camps to give visitors a more direct sense of these places. These recreations help make the conditions and scale of what happened more understandable.
