Személyes gyűjtemények (1848-1956)
http://lod.ehri-project-test.eu/units/hu-002736-személyes_gyűjtemények_1848_1956 an entity of type: Record
The HMC’s collection of documents mostly contain private files, and only a fragment of the documents were produced by a state or municipal agency
The collection of archival documents is based on the material of the Hungarian Auschwitz Foundation (HFA), an NGO established in 1990 by survivors to collect and preserve documentation pertaining to the Holocaust. HFA culled copies of archival material from several Hungarian public collections as well as original private documents donated by other institutions and individuals. The collection was handed over to the newly established Holocaust Memorial Center in 2004. From that time on, more than 800 individuals donated the HMC their private and family documents, photos and objects.
