Course Description

Explore the Lost Shtetl Museum in Šeduva, Lithuania, a powerful reconstruction of Jewish life before the Holocaust. Interweaving personal family history with archival recovery, it follows the story of a Lithuanian shtetl that once thrived and was destroyed in 1941. Through the lens of letters, artifacts, and lived memory, the talk traces one family’s connection to Šeduva and the broader effort to restore its Jewish past. It highlights the museum’s innovative design, combining landscape, testimony, and immersive exhibitions to tell not only how Šeduva’s Jews died, but, more importantly, how they lived, dreamed, and remembered.
