CJH, Claims Conference Bring Inside Kristallnacht XR to Manhattan
NEW YORK – November 08, 2026 -- The Center for Jewish History (CJH) and the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany (Claims Conference) will open the mixed-reality project Inside Kristallnacht to students and the public in Manhattan on November 30, timed to the 88th anniversary of the 1938 pogroms.
XR experience centers on testimony from Holocaust survivor Charlotte Knobloch
The program features Dr. Charlotte Knobloch, born in 1932, who recounts spending the night of November 9, 1938 on the streets of Munich with her father, fearing the Nazis would target their home. The experience combines her account with illustrated environments and archival material covering Kristallnacht and her subsequent survival. An interactive question-and-answer feature matches participants' questions to her prerecorded responses.
