Holocaust Names Memorial

It was opened in september 2021, the Holocaust Names Memorial in Amsterdam and today we had the opportunity to visit this impressive monument. The memorial is a labyrinth of passageways flanked by two metre tall brick walls. Each brick represents a victim with an inscription of name, date of birth and age of death. On top of the walls there are shapes of reflective stainless steel. Seen from above, the steel forms four Hebrew letters that make up a word that translates as ‘In memory of’. The memorial is a design of Daniel Libeskind.
