Holocaust diary

A Holocaust diary is a personal journal kept by individuals, often victims or survivors of the Holocaust, that records their thoughts, experiences, and emotions during this period of intense persecution and genocide by the Nazi regime from 1941 to 1945. These diaries serve as powerful historical documents, offering firsthand insight into daily life under oppressive conditions, the loss of loved ones, and the resilience of the human spirit amidst unimaginable suffering. They help us understand the personal impact of the Holocaust and preserve memory for future generations.
