The Austrian Heritage Collection (AHC), a program whose specific goal is to document the history of Austrian-Jewish émigrés who fled to the USA or to (what is now) the State of Israel during the Nazi years, has been centered at the Leo Baeck Institutes in New York and in Jerusalem since 1996. Presently, there are more than 700 oral history interviews in the LBI’s Austrian Heritage Collection, and the number is growing fast.
