The Breman Museum

ABSOLUTE MUST SEE IN ATLANTA! I attended over 10 holocaust museums domestically and internationally, and this is among the absolute top! From design, aesthetics, to use of technology, to guiding principles and spirit this is a required see for all who care about humanity. They start with a book that drives home the sheer volume of lives lost, and then moves you through history transporting you into the lives of people we all will relate to. You then see the world literally turned upside down, as tracks on the ceiling lead to the ominous gates ahead. This is where they depart from the norm, choosing to focus and emphasize how Jews refused to go quietly into the night, refused to parish without a fight, and persevered by their very existence... transitioning not only in story and imagery but even from cold concrete to plush green carpets. They leverage technology, allowing each person to use their cell phone, as guided tour with stopping stations. A robust IVR system allowing you to pause or push forward, as you take in a testament to humanities worst and very best... one of the last images was of a young bride with a parachute converted into a beautiful wedding dress. Never Forget! Celebrate Life! It's all here!
