"Bear Witness to the Holocaust Jerusalem’s Yad Vashemensures that the magnitude of the Holocaust's injustices are never forgotten. Visiting the museum is an educational, as well as emotional, experience and should not be rushed. The museum is dedicated to researching the phenomenon of the Holocaust and genocide in general, with the hope of avoiding it in the future. Exhibitions present the history that led up to the Holocaust, as well as the related events during and after World War II, featuring personal stories, historical artifacts, films, and photographs. It also highlights the bravery of underground movements, uprisings, and the non-Jews (the Righteous Among the Nations) who saved Jewish neighbors, children, andfamilies from certain death. Outdoor gardens contain several monuments, including a haunting children’s memorial and commemorative sculptures. Guided audio tours are recommended."

The Yad Vashem Museum in Jerusalem is one of the most powerful and educational experiences in Israel. It offers a deeply moving journey through the history of the Holocaust, combining personal stories, historical documents, and multimedia exhibits that bring the past to life. The museum doesn’t just present facts—it helps visitors truly understand the human impact of the events and the importance of remembrance. It’s an essential visit for anyone who wants to learn about the Holocaust in a meaningful and thought-provoking way.

Absolutely fascinating place. You'll need a booking reservation. This can be completed on arrival, but entry could be delayed. Bags aren't permitted. Free lockers are available downstairs. There is more to the place than you may think. Be sure you have plenty of time. It's definitely worth the time.

A must visit museum for every person on the planet. The horrible history our not that distant ancestors experienced must not be forgotten and learned in the near and distant future. The visit takes around two hours and includes lots of exhibits, interview with survivors ands lots of interesting reading materials. The building itself is very impressive and the view in the end is mesmerizing. Note that you must have a green pass to enter.

Very informative and attractive museum to understand the WWII and how Jew were killed by Nazi. It’s a sad history showing the loss of humanity in the era of wartime. We need to learn from the history. Need to go the Children Memorial as you will be impressed.

I visited this place with friends, you should prepare yourself very well emotionally and spiritually, it's not like any museum, the way it design is really unique and the narrative meanwhile the diversity of the contents,the way they present in the same time the politics aspects. I hope this place will be more open to accepting people from different perspectives and religions. The location of this place is provocative for some people and neighbors, that's what I heard.

A highly emotional experience. The exhibition is finely thought-out and presented, fully encapsulating the reasons, results and outcome of the Holocaust. The complex also includes several memorials set around the park. Admittance is free, so there is no reason that precludes the curious visitor of visiting the museum. A must-visit when you’re in Jerusalem.

An important place to visit in Israel cause it makes u aware and always reminded of history’s horror during the most unforgettable tragedy in history the Holocaust! U cant take pics here in respect for those men women n children who perished... it was a sad visit n just quietly looking n reading thru stories of what seems like from horror movies of suffering n deaths but there was also stories of courage n strength of faith n hope... my unforgettable visit was short cuz i was alone n late coming ... i only took pics outside the bldg. i would like to visit again n even go to the library... im not a jew but forever loves Israel n the Jewish people!.. much respect n prayers to all victims of this horrific crime n the their families.. may their memories forever be a blessing!.. 🙏

Outstanding. A must see if you come to Israel. The museum has a terrific, modern architecture with plenty of significance. The displays are in chronological order. I thought I knew a lot about the Holocaust and found out I knew very little. The displays are super powerful.
