The social pedagogue and author was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit on ribbon in 2023 for his long-standing commitment to human rights and memorial and remembrance work.<\/p>\n<p>Press Release from the Coastal Museum: <em>The starting point of the reading is the life story of Wilhelm Brasse (1917\u20132012). Brasse was deported to Auschwitz concentration camp at the age of 22, where, due to his photographic training, he became the camp's documentarian. His job was to photograph inmates \u2013 people who were murdered shortly thereafter or who became victims of pseudomedical experiments. The photographs show faces caught between fear, resistance, and helplessness. In 1945, Brasse refused to destroy the recordings, in order to preserve the testimony of the systematically organized murder. Today, the photographs are among the most important visual sources about Auschwitz.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Reiner Engelmann met Wilhelm Brasse in person and developed the book \u201eThe Photographer of Auschwitz\u201c from their conversations. The concert reading combines text and music into a powerful space of remembrance: a reading against forgetting.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The event is part of the supporting program for the exhibition \u201eDraw What You See. Children's Drawings from Theresienstadt\u201c by artist Helga Weissov\u00e1, whose drawings document everyday life in the Theresienstadt Ghetto from a child's perspective. Both testimonies make visible how important individual voices are for collective memory.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Registration is requested at:<\/p>\n<p>Phone: (04421) 40 09 40<\/p>\n<p>Email: kuestenmuseum@wilhelmshaven-touristik.de<\/p>\n<p><strong>Admission<\/strong>5 Euros<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue<\/strong>K\u00fcstenmuseum Wilhelmshaven, Weserstra\u00dfe 58, 26382 Wilhelmshaven<\/p>\n<p><strong>Start<\/strong>6:00 PM to 8:00 PM<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4863\" src=\"https:\/\/t-w-b.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/image-3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/t-w-b.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/image-3.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/t-w-b.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/image-3-8x12.jpeg 8w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Am 13.
