Join Aaron Noble, Senior Historian and Curator of Political and Military History, for a powerful guided tour of Holocaust to Haven in honor of International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Explore the extraordinary story of the 982 refugees who were offered the United States’ only official “safe haven” during the Holocaust and who spent eighteen months behind barbed wire at Fort Ontario in Oswego, New York. Standing before original artifacts, including a section of the fort’s chain-link fence, our historian will share insights into the complex intersection of refuge, restriction, resilience, and hope that defines this chapter of both New York and America’s wartime history.
