holocaust memorial day


Holocaust Memorial Day falls on 27 January each year. That date is the anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau.

Each year a theme is adopted to focus reflection. The theme for 2008 is 'Imagine - Remember, Reflect, React'. This year the Council and Ellesmere Port Borough Council are marking the day by having a public reflection area in Ellesmere Port Civic Hall, on Monday 28 January 2008.

Members of the public can spend time to reflect, sign a book of remembrance and view artwork. Specially selected book collections covering the holocaust themes will be available in the Ellesmere Port Library situated across the concourse from the Civil Hall.
