It is with deep sadness that we have received the news of the death of Professor Yehuda Bauer, one of the world's foremost historians of the Holocaust and anti-Semitism. His research and teaching contributed greatly to our understanding of the tragic events of the 20th century and their implications for contemporary society. His determination to lead us to a deeper understanding of human nature and the need to combat hatred and intolerance will always remain an inspiration.

The Terezín Initiative Institute expresses its deepest condolences to his family and all those who were affected by his life and work.

In Professor Bauer we are losing not only an expert, whose opinion has always been extremely valuable to us, but also a compatriot and close friend.

This week, Thomas and Laurenz visited the School of International and Public Relations in Prague-Nusle and held a workshop there with pupils from the Matura classes. The activity ‘Just an ordinary day’ was used to illustrate the effects of anti-Jewish laws and regulations during the Nazi era. In group work, the participants were able to compile and analyse information about the actual circumstances using original documents.


We would like to thank you for the invitation and the lively discussions with the pupils.

As an institute, our work is based on three main pillars:

  • The Institute researches the history of Nazi persecution in the Czech lands and Europe.
  • It commemorates and documents its victims.

  • It educates against manifestations of racism, anti-Semitism, and xenophobia.

Education is a key tool for preventing anti-Semitism, racism, xenophobia, and other forms of hatred that led to tragedies such as the Holocaust. Essential elements in education include:
