Centropa - Jewish Witness to the 20th Century"Centropa was founded in Vienna and Budapest in 2000 with the goal of preserving Jewish memory in Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the Baltics, and the former Soviet Union, then disseminating our findings to the widest possible audience.
We were not founded to be a Holocaust interview project. Our goal was to seek out over a thousand elderly Jews still living between the Baltic and the Aegean so we could ask them to tell us stories about the entire 20th century, just as they lived it."
