💨 Abstract

An auction house in Neuss, Germany, is facing criticism for selling over 600 Nazi records and artifacts, including Gestapo files and letters from concentration camp prisoners. Holocaust survivors and organizations like the Fritz Bauer Institute and the International Auschwitz Committee have called for the auction to be canceled, arguing that these items should be preserved in public archives or museums, not sold for profit. The items include documents detailing executions, propaganda materials, and letters describing atrocities.
