Special Exhibition "Operation Finale. The Capture and Trial of Adolf Eichmann" (until April 30th, 2024):
:
A Nazi criminal in hiding, a secret pursuit and a spectacular capture: the exhibition "Operation Finale" shows how, in 1960, the Israeli secret service Mossad and German Attorney General Fritz Bauer tracked down Adolf Eichmann, one of the most notorious Holocaust perpetrators, in Argentina, the specifics of his abduction and transport to Israel and how he was finally brought to trial. This was the first major trial in which victims of the Holocaust testified to the crimes of the Nazis before the world public.
The exhibition "Operation Finale" was first shown in Israel and the USA and has been brought to Germany for the first time by Adolf Rosenberger gGmbH and the SMÄK. It is a multimedia exhibition developed by the Maltz Museum (USA) in co-operation with the Mossad and the Museum of the Jewish People ANU in Tel Aviv. Short films, 70 photographs and 60 exhibits, including maps and documents, transport visitors directly to the scene at the beginning of the 1960s. There is also a replica of the bulletproof glass cabin in which Adolf Eichmann testified during the trial.
