Occupation spoliation bank account

Since 2005, the Shoah Memorial provides victims of spoliations with useful information on compensation. Our homepage guides you through all administrative procedures.

During the anti-Semitic legislation, many damages were caused by spoliation of financial and material assets. The Shoah Memorial offers you detailed information on your rights to reparations, restitution or compensation. This applies also to art works which were stolen in France during the Second World War.

Financial compensation after the Jewish genocide

After the Jewish Genocide, many associations worked on compensations for Holocaust victims. The 'Commission for the compensation of victims of spoliation' has been taking care of returning stolen Jewish funds, bank accounts, spoliated artwork, etc. to their owners. On our website, you can find more details on this issue.

Spoliation of valuable works of art

An illustrated catalogue published by the Management of French Museums is supposed to help victims of spoliation to get back artwork that was spoliated by Nazi Germany. Thus, requests for restitution and compensation can be handled more easily.
