"Operation Finale: The Capture & Trial of Adolf Eichmann" Exhibition Trailer

The blockbuster exhibition "Operation Finale: The Capture & Trial of Adolf Eichmann" is on display February 10 - July 15, 2018 at The Florida Holocaust Museum! This is the first exhibition in the United States to fully document the pursuit, capture, extradition, and trial of a Nazi war criminal.
Fifty-six years ago, Adolf Eichmann, who had been in charge of transporting millions of European Jews to death camps, sat in a courtroom for a trial that would be among the first in history to be completely televised. The trial captivated millions of people across the globe and it was the first time that many of them learned the details of the Holocaust.
The dramatic story behind one of the world’s most notorious escaped Nazi war criminals being brought to justice is told using recently declassified artifacts from the Mossad, Israel’s Secret Intelligence Service. The exhibition includes objects and images made available outside the country for the first time - original 1960s-era artifacts, photographs, Telly Award winning films and audio, as well as contemporary design elements and interactive features, to tell a story of espionage, intrigue and, ultimately, justice served.
Also included in the exhibition is one of the most iconic objects of the century - the bulletproof glass booth in which the accused sat as the courtroom drama was broadcast around the globe.
*Operation Finale: The Capture and Trial of Adolf Eichmann is a co-production of The Mossad - Israel Secret Intelligence Service; Beit Hatfutsot - The Museum of the Jewish People, Tel Aviv, Israel; and the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage, Cleveland, Ohio.
*This exhibition is made possible by a generous grant from the Maltz Family Foundation.
The Florida Holocaust Museum is located at 55 5th Street South, St. Petersburg, FL 33701.
