The media collection is the Ravensbrück Memorial Museum's collection of audiovisual media. It includes audio and visual material stored on more than 3300 data carriers. The creation of this collection began in 1996 and includes media contributions relating to the history of the Ravensbrück Concentration Camp and the work of the Memorial Museum, some of which date back to the 1960s. Audio and video interviews with camp survivors and film productions on various aspects of the history and memory of Ravensbrück are a valuable part of the collection.
The Ravensbrück Memorial Museum has worked with the filmmaker Loretta Walz on various projects. Since 1980, Walz interviewed women and men from Eastern and Western Europe formerly imprisoned in the Moringen, Lichtenburg and Ravensbrück concentration camps. Interviews from this extensive collection can be viewed upon request in the video archive 'The Women of Ravensbrück'.
