“Operation Finale” is a traveling exhibition that documents one of the greatest spy searches and captures of the 20th century. The exhibit examines the enormity of the crimes committed during the Nazi regime and calls on visitors to consider the meaning of justice and accountability. Adolf Eichmann, the head of the Nazis’ homicidal “Jewish Department” who zealously managed the transport of millions of innocent people to death camps, disappeared after World War II. Immersive multimedia presentations, films, photos, and recently declassified espionage artifacts never before seen outside of Israel reveal the secret history behind the pursuit, capture, extradition, and 1961 trial of this principal perpetrator of The Final Solution.
