Vilar Formoso & Aristides de Sousa Mendes

Openning of our Open-Air exhibition  

Two historical subjects which linked Luxembourg to Portugal during the 2nd World War are presented on the Place de la Résistance. Vilar Formoso, the Portuguese border town and the Portuguese consul in Bordeaux, Aristides de Sousa Mendes. Both played a key role in saving tens of thousands of Jews from the Nazis. Translated into Portuguese, these are abridged versions of the two exhibitions, one of the National Archives, the other of Neimënster. This project is aimed, amongst others, at the local Portuguese community.

An exhibition produced in cooperation with the National Archives and MemoShoah asbl.

Free admission.
