Fritz Bauer Institute

Fritz Bauer Institute

The Fritz Bauer Institute is an independent, contemporary-historical and interdisciplinary research and educational institution. It investigates and documents the history of National Socialist mass crimes - especially the Holocaust - and their impact up to the present day. One focus of its work is the communication of relevant German and international research through publications, lecture events and exhibitions.

The Institute bears the name of Fritz Bauer and is committed to his memory. Fritz Bauer (1903-1968), Jewish émigré and Hessian Attorney General from 1956, fought for the reconstruction of the legal system in the Federal Republic of Germany and for the prosecution of Nazi criminals.
