Please join us virtually to attend a special evening in honour of Dr Agnes kaposi, MBE, FREng, celebrated engineer and survivor of the Holocaust, to mark her family’s generous donation of their family’s document and book collection to the Wiener Holocaust Library.

The evening will feature Dr Kaposi in conversation with Library Director, Dr Toby Simpson, as well as a panel discussion including Professor Tim Cole (University of Bristol), Dr Borbala Klacsman (University College Dublin), and Dr Chris Gilley (Wiener Holocaust Library). The panel will reflect on the Kaposi family’s history and survival, as well as the significance of family document collections in historical research.

Join us virtually to learn more about Agens’ remarkable story and the importance of family history and collections for research and education about the Holocaust.
