Charlotte Knobloch, born in Munich in 1932, survived the Holocaust disguised as a Christian child on a Bavarian farm. After the war, she reunited with her father and remained in Germany, eventually dedicating her life to combating antisemitism. The XR Experience “Inside Kristallnacht” centers on her story. 

In this message to her grandchildren, Dr. Knobloch emphasized the importance of taking pride in one’s Judaism in an era of antisemitism and misinformation.

The USC Shoah Foundation partnered with the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany (Claims Conference) on the development and launch of Inside Kristallnacht, an innovative mixed-reality experience that presents audiences the events of Kristallnacht through the eyes of Holocaust survivor and activist Dr. Charlotte Knobloch.

Made possible by the generous support of the Epstein Family Foundation.

The USC Shoah Foundation announced a partnership with the Berlin-based Kreuzberg Initiative against Anti-Semitism (KIgA), a collaboration that will increase European access to testimonies of survivors of the Holocaust and other genocides and create wide-reaching programming to counter antisemitism.
