Mémorial De La Shoah

This place brought me to tears and I'm not Jewish. Went to see the current temporary photographic exhibition not realising it was a memori to the lives of the French Jewish population during WWII and earlier. Such a humbling experience. It was free but I would've paid.

An incredibly profound and sad experience. Most placards have English translations, so the experience is not in any way diminished if a visitor does not speak French.

So powerful to see and remember the french jews, victims of a genocide,and stand with them and stand today facing history in our difficult times

This memorial is for the resistance fighters and Jewish people deported from France to concentration camps during WWII. It is very somber. The art is very well done and creates the feeling and mood I believe the artist was trying for. It is free to visit. Be certain to ask for the audio guide. (also free) as it explains a lot about the art and the history enshrined In the memorial.

Free to enter but please leave a donation to support this powerful memorial to the holocaust. While there are many emotional exhibits, the most moving is the interviews between French youth and Holocaust survivors with the theme of "I promise to be the memory of your memory. "

It's a very good memorial. A bit heart wrenching to study about the details of the Holocaust.

I’m glad it exists, but it needs more in English!

In my many trips to Paris, I have never been here even though I have always wanted to come here. I am glad I know French because I was able to understand the testimonial videos from survivors and reading the French texts of the children of the Rwandan genocide were emotional. You don’t have to know French as many things have translations, but it is helpful in the areas that aren’t translated.
