A great tribute to the lives of those lost during the holocaust. Very thought-provoking. Take your time to explore it, we were on a tour when we saw it and had to keep moving, wish we'd had longer to stay and experience it for longer. more

The memorial is a very impressive ?artwork? but is it supposed to be honoured or enjoyed. The reason I ask is that when we turned the corner people were lying across the stonework enjoying the sun.
