HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL MUSEUM
Go there and contact
Museum with modern architecture, with concrete walls that evoke the coldness of concentration camps.
Four stories of films, photos, documents and objects that tell the Shoah with a very strong historical concern. Before taking the lift, every visitor is given an identification card on which the story of a man, woman or child, Jewish most often, lived in Europe during the Holocaust. It is here that the museum begins, in a very effective way, its duty of memory. The visit starts on the fourth floor, where one learns more about the roots of anti-Semitism, the context leading to the rise of Nazism in Germany and the arrival of Adolf Hitler in power. The third floor returned to the years of war between 1940 and 1945, during which the Nazis developed the Final Solution, the goal of which was the total eradication of Jews. On the second floor, the ultimate chapter of the Holocaust was revived until the last concentration camp by the Allies and the Nuremberg trial were released. It is also on this floor that is the Hall of Remembrance, a soothing space where natural light is filters and where the victims of the Shoah, represented by an eternal flame, can be paid homage.
The museum's modern architecture is remarkable and its concrete walls evoke the coldness of the concentration camps. German architect James Ingo Freed has also visited several historical sites of the Shoah to draw inspiration from it. We are reeling from this very harsh but indispensable visit.
