We remember - the 86

This book is the result of a Franco-German encounter between teachers, students and the descendants of victims of Nazi scientific crimes who traveled from the United States, Israel, Switzerland and the south of France especially for the event. The event took place in Alsace in June 2023. In mid-August 194386 Jewish men and women from several European countries had been murdered in the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp for the purpose of adding their skeletons to the anthropological collection of the then Reich University of Strasbourg. With numerous images and reports, this book documents and tells a special story: for one, the changing, private and also institutional memory of this crime, then the related, changing transnational cultures of memory of the present, and finally the didactic-pedagogical communication of remembrance in memorial sites. From the outset, the descendants of the victims, the teachers and students in Strasbourg were in agreement: We Remember.
