Simon family stone artifact unveiling & Kristallnacht commemoration & pop-up exhibition event. The Holocaust Center of Florida proudly presents "Silent Witness: The Ten Commandments Stone of Egelsbach," a commemorative Kristallnacht exhibit showcasing the original Ten Commandments stone tablet from the old synagogue of Egelsbach, Germany. The 800-lbs. sandstone tablet stands as a powerful symbol of resilience amidst the persecution faced by the Jewish communities of Germany, from the stone's installation in 1903 to its final journey from Germany to Florida in 2000. The exhibit explores the life of Jews in Egelsbach before, during, and after the Holocaust, bringing their history to life through the personal testimonies and archival documents of the Simon family of Egelsbach. Join us in honoring the memory of the Jewish community and learning about their enduring legacy.
