The Holocaust Museum is something that I believe everyone should stop in and see. It is very informative and due to the events that happened it is not particularly the most lively museum to see. It is very educational so bringing your kids may not excite them but it is worthwhile. After going to the museum myself, I was feeling... more

We went to the Holocaust museum in Washington DC 2 years ago and it was so worth seeing. After watching the movie, "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" this past week, we were talking about the museum and found out that this was in Houston. We never knew it before. So we went for the day today. It was so... more

I've seen buses of small children offloading into this place and I commend those educators. These are the lessons of history that need to be understood by people of all ages. I wish the museum was bigger. There is a grassy area outback for reflections a bit of quiet time. All in all the layout was nice and unique and... more

Decent but nothing particularly special; I believe there are far better museums in the Houston area than this one. Indeed, there weren't as many exhibits in the museum as I would have liked to see. more

This is a wonderful museum for everyone. It's informative and very moving. It's very difficult to keep from crying. Try to take advantage of the guided tour and then if time, view the museum on your own afterwards. A video is shown where actual holocaust survivors talk about their experiences. It's hard not to get choked up watching it. You... more

I didn't know that Houston had a Holocaust Museum until I came across it while driving around the city. This museum helps to keep alive the memory of the world's greatest tragedy. It has photos and other memorabilia from the Holocaust. It will take the visitor two or three hours to fully see everything in this museum and it's well... more

I didn't even know they had a holocaust museum here. There is no admission fee. They rely on our donations. This is a place everybody should go see at least once. It's something we should never forget. If you read everything it will take about 2 hours to go through. The really sad part is at the end when you... more

Fabulous!

Wonderful museum. My children and I took a guided tour of this museum as part of our unit study about the WWII. It is shaped likea smok stack. It may not be big but it is worth the visit. It is free to the public. more

Un beau musée intimiste et pédagogique sur un sujet poignant qu'est la destruction méthodique des Juifs entre 1930 et 1945.... more
