Founded in 1933, the Library is Britain’s largest and most important collection of material relating to the Holocaust and genocide.
We are pleased to announce that our public archive tours have resumed. You can now visit the world’s Holocaust archives for an in-depth view of our historic collections and to see first-hand how we collect and preserve valuable material for future generations.
Every Tuesday from 2-3pm you will be able to join a free tour of the Library with our well-informed volunteer tour guides to learn about our history and our work going forward.
The tours last approximately one hour, encompassing the Library’s main archive space where you’ll have the opportunity to view fascinating and rare historical documents from the Holocaust, while also being able to take a look around the Wolfson Reading Room.
Sign up for free to attend the next tour now.
If you would like more information, to pre-book a place on one of our Tuesday tours, or to register for a private tour please email the Library’s Visitor Services, Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator, Yasmin Gledhill [email protected].
One comment so far
HI. My family and I are visiting the week of 8 October. We’d hope to visit the Jewish Museum, which is now closed and Bevis Marks synagogue which is being renovated. We scheduled a tour of the Memorial Scrolls Trust and the Holocaust galleries at the IWM. We can not unfortunately take your Tuesday tour. I am seeking other meaningful experiences and places in London to learn more the history of Jews and the Holocaust. Will you please share reccomendations?
Thank you,
