Every 2.5 years, Holocaust survivor Eva Kor leads a weeklong, group tour of the Auschwitz concentration camp near Krakow, Poland. In January 2010, we took 55 people -- teachers, students, and community leaders -- on a most enlightening journey.

We'll put you on our update list! For more questions, email info@candlesholocaustmuseum.org.

CANDLES Holocaust Museum and Education Center is dedicated to the Mengele twins who survived the horrible experiments of Dr. Mengele. Through the continued efforts of the survivors, family members, and community support we hope to shed light on the effects of hatred and prejudice.

The museum is open to the public Tuesday-Friday 10-4 and Saturday 1-4. 

The docent schedule is subject to change, please call ahead to confirm which docent will be available for your visit.

Docents are on-hand from 1 to 4 to answer questions and share their experiences:

Tuesday and Thursday: Mickey Kor, a four-year survivor of Nazi ghettos and camps.

Wednesday and Saturday: Eva Kor, founder of CANDLES and survivor of Dr. Josef Mengele's medical experiements on twins at Auschwitz.

Friday: Walter Sommers, witness to the rise of Hitler and Kristallnacht. He escaped to the US with his family in 1939.
