In 2026, the Shoah Memorial offers an unprecedented look into the life of Simone Veil, not as a political figure, but as a sister. The exhibition, designed by filmmaker David Teboul, relies on rare documents – correspondence, photographs, interviews – to reconstruct the history of the Jacob family, from its Niçoise origins to the tragedy of the Holocaust. The exhibition highlights the deep bonds that united Madeleine and Simone, and the devastating losses that marked their lives. It offers an intimate glimpse into the consequences of the genocide on a Jewish family, a story often forgotten within collective history. This exhibition, the result of meticulous research, is a unique opportunity to understand the personal journey of one of the most significant figures of the 20th century. Guided tour for adults.
