A traveling exhibit is giving Mon Valley residents a glimpse at some of the horrors of the Holocaust. “Anatomy of Oblivion” is currently on display at St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church in McKeesport. The pictorial exhibit, made available through the Serbian National Federation and the National and University Library of the Republic of Srpska, details the genocide that took place at the Jasenovac concentration camp complex, which consisted of multiple detention facilities located along the Sava River around 60 miles south of Zagreb.
