  • What a place! I found it while walking in old streets. I started with one story. It was so fascinating that I went through all these stories. They hand you a headphone set and you can hear the story.....  more

  • Truly perfect! Very good blend of technology and culture. I would have loved more artifacts, of course, but that would have triggered other limitations.

  • Humbling experience, the audio stories available were so thorough and gave great insight into the lives of the Jewish people living in and around Cluj Napoca during the terrible times of the Holocaust and leading up to it. My 5 year old didn't understand much but he was able to gain some knowledge about this part of history and that it is important to love all people so that we don't have hate in this world.
  • A hidden gem in the centre of Cluj-Napoca. You will have an audio tour experience and discover the story of 3 Jewish people that lived in Cluj. Also they have nice VR spots to visualize the historic events. Highly recommended to visit!
  • The power of storytelling. The first time ever that I saw the right way to share a story that catches the attention and engages you. I strongly feel that we are more likely to absorb the powerful message in a meaningful manner using storytelling, than if the same message is presented simply in statistics, maps, elusive facts and figures. I've listened the story of David. He trappes your mind so quickly with his warm voice that you feel instantly overwhelmed. You're trapped and judged in the sentence room, engaged in the railway travel with other souls, and sentenced to death or work .The used words are not drama oriented, no syrup and honey, not a single word is begging for compassion or used to point the finger against someone. There is no need for that, because the jews from the ground speak louder than any denier's voice. Entirely overwhelming! I think it is an experience that everyone needs. You should step in someone's else's life to fully realize how life can change in a second and sometimes you can't do anything, but accept the fact that you must survive no matter what or you should escape, with every cost, from the Hell which man created on Earth. Truly an awakening experience! By Jo Gärtner.
  • An amazing, little museum, very well set up. It deserves a visit certainly
  • Nice experience there! The ticket was 19 lei(3.5 euros). I had an audio guide(no cost) and the storytelling was excellent.
