An exhibition of the German Resistance Memorial Center

Women's resistance to the National Socialist dictatorship was diverse, risky and courageous. Nevertheless, for decades after 1945, it received little or no attention from the German public.


In 2019, the German Bundestag therefore expressly recognized and honoured "the courage and achievements of women in the resistance against the National Socialist dictatorship". It decided to fund a project by the German Resistance Memorial Foundation to further research the topic and an exhibition.


This exhibition presents the results. The focus is on biographies of female resistance fighters. They show the entire social breadth and ideological diversity of the resistance against the Nazi regime. At the same time, a large number of women who were persecuted by the National Socialist unjust justice system because of their resistance are honored for the first time.

The exhibition will be on display from July 10, 2024 to November 10, 2024 on the 1st floor, special exhibition area.Translated with DeepL
