Dokumentations- und Kulturzentrum Deutscher Sinti und Roma

Museum in Heidelberg, Germany

The Documentation and Cultural Centre of German Sinti and Roma (German: Dokumentations- und Kulturzentrum Deutscher Sinti und Roma) was established in Heidelberg, Germany, in the early 1990s, as a memorial to Sinti and Roma people who were killed by the National Socialists Party. After several years of extension work collecting stories from the victims, conducting research, and conversion, the building complex was ceremonially opened to the public on 16 March 1997, and was supported by the attendance of many Roma and Sinti survivors. It is the world's first permanent exhibition on the genocide
