Holocaust Memorial Museum

After walking in the rain for about 15 minutes, we stood in front of the Holocaust Museum. It was quite big, it was a bit hard to figure out what way to go and we didn't have that much time, so we all kind of rushed through two of the three floors, which was too bad, since it was really exciting. Before we went inside we had to grab a little pamphlet which had the information about a person who actually lived during World War 2. You had to read one page per floor and on the last page on the last floor you were told if they survived.  Mine survived, and she made gypsy songs about the holocaust afterwards. Another person from the pamphlets was a Jew from Poland. She actually just got the papers, so she and her boyfriend could go to the USA, but they didn’t leave before Poland was taken by the Germans. She was moved from town to town by the Germans and in the end she and her family disappeared.

The museum said a lot about the Danish people during World War 2, and we were real heroes because we helped so many people to Sweden and risked our own lives to help them. It was very few Jewish people from Denmark who died during the war because of the great resistance movement of Denmark who sailed them to Sweden.

It was a really good museum and it was a nice experience, but we would have liked to have more time because it really isn’t a Museum you should rush through since it is really interesting even if you know nothing about the war.
