Time flies and by now the re-encounter of the pupils from Israel and Poland has already ended. Their meetings, first in Haifa and now in Krzyżowa, were possible within the framework of the project „A living bridge Haifa-Dzierżonów”, financially supported by the polish ministry of national education. Having met first in Haifa, in Ocober, the participants came now to Krzyżowa. Here the students dealt intensively with the interwoven history of Israel and Poland, guided by the trainers of Krzyżowa Foundation.

One of the main topics were this year´s anniversaries: 70 years Israel and 100 years of polish independence. The program offered occasions to discuss cultural heritage and jewish life past and present in Lower Silesia. During the visit in Wroclaw christian and jewish traditions were experienced: enjoying the colourful Christmasmarket and taking part in the Hanukkah candle lighting in front of the Stork Synagogue.

The interactive multimedia guide to the exhibition "Courage and Reconciliation" was created as part of the project "New methods of teaching history", which was implemented from July 2016 to June 2017 in Krzyżowa. Its aim was to create a tool that will allow various groups of guests visiting Krzyżowa to get to know the subject of the exhibition better.

Thanks to the application, visitors to the exhibition have access to additional information and materials. During the project, multipliers and students from Poland and Germany worked together on the concept and content of the multimedia guide.
The multimedia guide is available to all Krzyżowa visitors and project participants. It is also used in the daily work of the International Youth Meeting Centre and Memorial Site of the Krzyżowa Foundation.
