During the Holocaust, most Lithuanian Jews were not killed in Nazi death camps, but by their neighbors, usually shot or even beaten to death. In all, 90% of an estimated 250,000 Jews perished, wiping out a community that had been part of Lithuanian life for 5 centuries. So it may come as a surprise that in Vilnius, the country’s capital, there is a thriving Jewish community center, an expanded new Jewish Museum and fully functioning synagogue. But Vilnius is divided on how to face its own messy history. Until recent years, the city’s huge Museum of Genocide Victims didn’t even mention the Holocaust. (The word genocide in the museum’s name refers to what the Soviets did after their occupation of the country upon the Nazi defeat in 1945.) Streets are named after people like Kazys Skirpa, who advocated ridding Lithuania of Jews even before the Holocaust began, and after dates like the 23rd of June, the day the German invasion and Lithuanian Holocaust began. One of the capital’s most prominent churches has its main front steps formed of headstones from Jewish cemeteries, some with Hebrew inscriptions clearly visible. And the giant Soviet-built Palace of Concerts and Sports, where Lithuania’s famously popular basketball stars play, is built over an ancient Jewish cemetery. @darosulakauri took this photo at a memorial in the Ponary neighborhood, on the outskirts of town, where 70,000 Jews were brought by train, stripped naked and shot to death in the forest.
