Holocaust museum

Shoah remembrance institution

A Holocaust museum is an institution dedicated to documenting and memorializing the Nazi genocide of six million Jews during World War II.

These museums typically combine historical exhibits, survivor testimonies, and artifacts to educate visitors about the Holocaust and its victims: We visited the Holocaust museum in Washington.

The term sometimes extends to museums covering other genocides or Nazi atrocities against Roma, disabled people, and other targeted groups.
