Holocaust Memorial Park — Local services in New York

In the memory for "This memorial of the six million Jewish men, women and children methodically murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators during the Holocaust.

To the five million other innocent human beings who were also murdered under German rule during World War II. To the heroes of the ghettos and the Jewish armed resistance. To the partisans and allied soldiers who fought for freedom. To those who survived the horrors and degradation of the Nazis. To the few righteous among the nations who risked their lives to shield those targeted for death. And to all those who wage battle for freedom and human dignity. Humanity must learn, understand, and remember so that it will never happen again.

This park is the only public Holocaust Memorial in New York City. Very beautiful park. Visit this place evening time it is...

All those displaying hate symbols are--every one of them--NEGATING The Greatest Generation that fought to eliminate the regime responsible for the Holocaust and liberate those who went on to rebuild the world with hope for a...

The Holocaust Memorial Park is an impactful, educational gem in Brooklyn (NY) open to the public. Historical events of The Holocaust and WWII are presented in brief passages on stone markers. These markers surround an impressive monument - a high central torch - representing Nazi concentration camps used to annihilate Jewish communities and murder minorities. The Park pays homage too to murdered victims of the Holocaust and to the witness-survivors who dedicated memorial stones in their memories. Well suited for tour groups and schools. The location, overlooking the foot of idyllic Sheepshead Bay, is a fitting place for learning, reflection and remembrance. Outdoors, open 7 days, no charge, benches, water fountain, street parking, near subways. Highly...
