The Ghetto Fighters' House Holocaust and Jewish Resistance Heritage Museum in Tel Aviv, Israel

The exhibition is a salute to the "Righteous Among the Nations" --those non-Jews who risked their lives in order to rescue Jews. Their story is told through individual testimonies. The exhibition has a dual message: on the one hand recognition of the Righteous among the Nations and honoring their acts and on the other hand the fact that "few risked their lives", in the words of the title at the entrance to the exhibition.
