Third Generation and Network Committee Member Tom Willett will introduce Dr Matthias Weniger, Head of Provenance Research at the Bavarian National Museum. Dr Weniger directs a project tracing the heirs of 111 silver objects confiscated by the German Reich and later bought by the museum. The objects had been seized and sold to the museum as part of the gigantic silver levy imposed on German Jews in 1939. Dr Weiniger will explain how he and his small team have been tracing the heirs and returning the items. After the talk there will be a chance to ask questions and share stories of family objects that have been returned or restituted. This event is open to members of the First, Second and Third Generations.
