Polish museum appeals for help cataloguing everyday items from prewar Jewish homes
[]
Notes From Poland
The POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews has appealed to the public to help compile a catalogue of everyday objects that were once found in prewar Jewish homes.
They have asked people who possess such items to send a photo and description of them via a new online platform.
There are also believed to be many more residents of Poland with Jewish roots, of which some are not even aware.
They have created an online space “to bring together people who keep in their homes – or found by chance – objects once belonging to Polish Jews”, the museum reported in a press release.
Over 400 items, most likely hidden by Jews during WWII, have been discovered during renovation work in Łódź.
