Holocaust Museum of Oporto

In Portugal, full museum construction projects, particularly from concept to inauguration, are multi-year endeavors.

The political view and educational methods have created a superficial, "sanitized" narrative that failed to prepare new generations, had not succeeded in reducing antisemitism, and made it worse.

The Irmex Forum 2026 took place in Porto on May 6 and 7, bringing together international experts, diplomats, academics and business leaders.

It has been the museum's official policy not to focus solely on the European areas occupied by the Nazis, but also to remember what happened in Siberia during the same period.

The event will take place at the Porto Holocaust Museum on Friday, May 8, 2026, at 2:30 p.m.

Councillor for Education at Porto City Hall gave the opening speech at the event
