Bag with Star of David and soap left outside Swedish Holocaust day display

A bag emblazoned with a Star of David containing soap and anti-Semitic literature was left outside an exhibition about the Holocaust.

For many years after World War II, rumors persisted that the Nazis used Jewish bodies to produce soap. No evidence was found to support the claim.

The bag was left Monday, International Holocaust Remembrance Day, outside the city museum of Norrköping, situated about 90 miles southwest of the capital Stockholm, the SVT broadcaster reported Thursday.

It was found one day after the opening of an exhibition titled “Nazism in Norrköping now and then.”
