As with other Holocaust Memorials this one provides the atmosphere conducive to reflecting on the horror of the Nazi's relentless effort to exterminate the Jews. What is unique here is the exhibit of the comics portrayal of the story. It was easy to understand the controversy, the debating points both for and against this media as a way to relate the message. Thoughtfully done. Impressive. A real learning experience. The staff were most obliging to answer questions.

When I saw this on my map, I was expecting a memorial plaque or statue. WRONG AGAIN! This is one of the best Holocaust displays I have seen. The outside stone work and wall listing all of the citizens murdered by the Nazis is a prelude to the information and history shown inside. I though that this would be a 15 minute visit, We were here for 2 hours! The documentation, photos etc are spectacular. Especially i these days, this should be a must visit by all

The Mémorial is on the right bank and not far from the Isle de St Louis; you can cross the Seine from the isle. Evidiently the Memorial is closed on Fridays. Count on a minimum of one hour in order to take your time.

Upon entering the facility there are approx 76,000 names etched into the walls.These were French Jews, deported by the nazis with the assistance of the Vichy government. They have a nice multi media room, but most important, a reading room with an extensive library to assist you in any research to help identify someone known to you or those French citizens who perished.
