Anti-Semitic poster from the “Grand Anti-Masonic Exhibition” held in German-occupied Belgrade.

By late 1941, Serbia had fallen under Nazi occupation. From October 1941 to January 1942, the Serbian puppet government in Belgrade hosted the “Great Anti-Masonic Exhibition,” which was financed by the Nazi regime and attended by approximately 80,000 Serbs. While the exhibition’s nominal purpose was to reveal a Masonic plot of world domination, the exhibition in fact focused almost entirely on the Jews, alleging a conspiracy with Communist and Masonic world powers, via The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
