Left of the entrance of Casa Marina Resort is the Jewish Historical Museum of Sosúa.
Here, with many attributes, pictures and video productions the history of the Jewish community in Sosúa is visualized.
But since recently there is also a web-based virtual museum on the history of Sosúa and its Jewish community on the web.
They are Sylvia Schwarz, Ruth Cohnen, Miguel Sanchez-Schwarz, Egon Schwarz, Eva Cohnen, Shirley Tauber and Cecil Hess who have made it a wonderful source of information of this website.
A source of information on the origin of the Sosúa colony with many anecdotes, comments, photos and videos.
It's great that they created this site and that interested people can now gain insight information about this particular community.
As written on their start-page it is about the lives of people who fled the Nazi occupied Europe and found refuge in the Dominican Republic, in Sosúa.
Sosúa Virtual Museum
They therefore not only escaped the Holocaust, but could also raise a family and create a self-sustaining community.
The website is still under construction and is still being expanded.
But already it is more than worth a visit.
