Eerie
As someone who is interested in WW2, I found this both fascinating and scary. The museum is very well laid out and all exhibits are clearly marked. We were ushered into the cinema to watch the film about Terezin Ghetto. For those who are not aware, it was a ghetto/ holding camp, and when the Red Cross visited, it was smartened up and used as a 'Model Camp'. The saddest part was the artwork by the schoolchildren. Broadly it fell into 3 categories, Home, The Camp and some fantastically creative work about the camp and the future. They really brought tears to the eyes, especially when you looked at the ages of the artists. A moving experience.

Interesting, disturbing visit to the Ghetto Museum
This stop was part of a Viking excursion to the Terezin Concentration Camp. There is an interesting short propaganda movie the Nazis made for a visit by the Red Cross to present a sugar coated version of what life was like at the "spa." Many momentos are displayed illustrating the ghetto experience.
