The exhibition Flykten 1943
In the autumn of 1943, more than 7 000 Danish Jews fled over the Öresund strait to avoid being deported to Nazi concentration camps. Thanks to their courage, decisiveness and humanity, as well as that of civil society, almost all Danish Jews survived the Holocaust. A considerable number of these Danish refugees came to Landskrona and Ven.
In the exhibition Flykten 1943 we get to take part of personal stories, both from those who fled and those who helped them. From witness statements, archive material and objects, the exhibition portrays one of the 20th centuries most successful rescue operations.
The exhibition is a branch of Landskrona Museum, located in the Commandant’s House at Landskrona Citadel, open to the public from May 30th 2026.
