Barrierefreiheit


The Foundation Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with the German Act on Equal Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities (BGG) and the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0).

Compliance status:
This website is partially compliant with BITV 2.0 and the underlying requirements of Directive (EU) 2016/2102, EN 301 549, and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at conformance level AA. We are continuing to work on reducing the remaining barriers.

Non-accessible content:
The content listed below is not yet fully accessible for the following reasons:
  • The interactive overview map is not yet fully operable by keyboard and screen reader.
  • Some historical image captions in the image database still lack adequate alternative text.
  • The color contrast of some text elements does not yet consistently meet the AA level.
We maintain a continuously updated, technical list of known limitations internally in our project tracker.
