Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Holocaust-Mahnmal in Berlin

The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas) honors the memory of the six million Jewish victims of German National Socialist persecution. Following a long period of debate, this memorial designed by the architect Peter Eisenman was opened in 2005. The exhibition in a center under the field of pillars tells visitors about the lives of the victims and about the historical sites of Nazi persecution.
