Day 2 - Berlin - Jewish Museum

From there to the history, shops and back again. The Jewish museum – unique architecture with a zig zag structure next to a decadent stoned house. This museum was one in its own.

The disorientation around the museum and not many windows present inside just a bit of natural light and again the feeling of disorientation, hope, and sadness featured mainly in the holocaust chamber. The holocaust chamber was pitch black, no heating, and natural light. The feeling of loneliness and a time to think and appreciate how Jews felt. With the light representing that ounce of hope it was an effective way of representing their feelings. The rest of the museum still in the same format of zig zag corridors and slits of light the rest of the 2000 years of Jewish history was illustrated and alliterated. This museum showed that what most people thought was this hatred for Jews began in WW2 was actually so much more then that – it showed that Jews have been targeted quiet a lot though history. It was a very insightful museum with much more suffering and disbelief then I thought.
