(IsraelNN.com) Nazi-hunter Simon Wiesenthal, who survived the Holocaust and helped track down Nazis for the rest of his life, died Tuesday at the age of 96.

Wiesenthal died in his sleep at his home in Vienna, Austria, according to Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles.

“When history looks back I want people to know the Nazis weren’t able to kill millions of people and get away with it,” Wiesenthal said of his life’s work.
