Berlin

In Memory of the Book Burning of May 10, 1933

On May 10, 1933, the German Nazi Regime called for "action against the Un-German spirit." Subsequently pacifistic or Jewish books were burned in many German cities. An exodus of the intellectual elite followed the book burning. Among those who had to go into exile and whose books were destroyed was Lion Feuchtwanger.

Annually, the Forum in Berlin organizes in cooperation with partners an event to commemorate this historic date and to draw attention to the fact that exile, censorship and the persecution of writers are still ongoing today in many parts of the world.
