In recent years, historical witnessing has emerged as a category of
"museum object." Audiovisual recordings of interviews with
individuals remembering events of historical importance are now
integral to the collections and research activities of museums.
They have also become important components in narrative and
exhibition design strategies. With a focus on Holocaust museums,
this study scrutinizes for the first time the new global phenomenon
of the "musealization" of the witness to history, exploring the
processes, prerequisites, and consequences of the transformation of
video testimonies into exhibits.
