Holocaust memorials are structures or sites dedicated to commemorating the victims of the Holocaust, a period during World War II when six million Jews and millions of others were systematically murdered by the Nazi regime. These memorials serve as a reminder of the atrocities committed and aim to educate future generations about the importance of tolerance and human rights. Many Holocaust memorials include sculptures, plaques, and gardens, often located in significant historical sites. Notable examples include the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin. These sites encourage reflection and remembrance of those who suffered.
