The group will travel to Berlin, Weimar and Erfurt.

Steve Goldberg, the center’s co-director of education will lead an expedition that includes the chance to see the living roots of such history-making events as the rise of Neo-Nazism, demise of Communism after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the movements of the Turks in Germany and the gays in Eastern Europe.

While HHREC has led many trips to Germany, this is the first time the public is invited to join, although the group will be limited in size. The trip will be from Wednesday, July 1 to Sunday, July 12, costs $5,100 per person double occupancy including all transportation, hotels, admissions, guided tours, breakfasts, two group lunches and seven group dinners.

The mission of the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center is to enhance the teaching and learning of the lessons of the Holocaust and the right of all people to be treated with dignity and respect.
