Abstract
In museums, the history of the Holocaust is told through various means of exhibition construction, including architecture/space, texts, artifacts, photographs, and digital technologies. The article focuses on the gendered history of the Holocaust in museums as institutions in Central Europe after the illiberal turn and evaluates how (and if) the museums incorporate the gender perspective in their narratives. It argues that illiberal museological practices are using “her-story turn” in these Holocaust museums as the primary tool to contribute to the paradigm change in Holocaust memorialization.
