The realization of the Holocaust Museum of Greece has been made possible thanks to the decisive support of its major donors. Key contributors include the Greek Government, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF), the Tavma Foundation, and the Genesis Prize Foundation, through a donation by Albert Bourla. With the essential and continuous engagement of the Municipality of Thessaloniki, which actively backs a project deeply embedded in the city’s historical and cultural identity, this sustained commitment has been instrumental in bringing the Museum from vision to reality.
