Holocaust Remembrance Day: A town once inhabited by Nazis reconciles with the past
Fox News
As Holocaust Remembrance Day is marked on Jan. 27, a town in southwestern Germany unflinchingly confronts its past and reaches out to Jews.
"We can only live here as Christians in this congregation if we take responsibility for the history of this city," Jobst Bittner, founder of both Tübingen’s TOS Church and the March of Life initiative, where descendants of Nazis organize marches against antisemitism with Christians and Jews throughout the world, told Israel’s Channel 11. Eve Glover is a contributing writer for Fox News Digital.
The television outlet's report showed a banner across the windows of the TOS church that read "Bring Them Home Now," a call to release nearly 100 Israeli and American hostages held by Hamas in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023. Inside the church is a store with merchandise and books about Israel. Downstairs is the "Museum of Guilt," which displays pictures of Nazis from Tübingen, with photographs of mass graves that were once hidden in cigar boxes as souvenirs of the Holocaust.
