Together with the Archivo General de Andalucía, we are opening our 20th #StolenMemory poster exhibition in Seville on December 16, 2022. Thirty-two posters tell the stories of people who were persecuted and deported to concentration camps in the Nazi era. Their personal belongings were taken away from them and have been stored in the Arolsen Archives since the early 1960s. We are working with volunteers to search for their families in order to return the stolen mementoes to them.

The exhibition focuses on the fates of persecutees from Spain who fought against Franco in the Spanish Civil War, were arrested by the German occupying forces while they were in exile in France, and were then deported to concentration camps.

In addition to the posters, the exhibition also includes the real personal belongings of four Spanish persecutees, Manuel García, Antonio Jiménez Ramos,  Vicente Díaz Ruiz and Fidel Ramos Valera.

The exhibition will be on display at the Archivo General de Andalucía until May 15, 2023.
