Remember
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 06/17/08
We have to take our children and even ourselves to places like this and learn and remember so that these things dont happen in the future. The Holocaust survivors are now elderly and very soon will no longer be with us anymore. So we as a new generation have to tell their stories. This place does just that and we were blessed to even meet a ...

Remember
By Molly M, 12/26/07
I find it more than a little scary that more and more students don't know much about the Holocaust. I recommend this museum if you have children (old enough to understand and walk through for at least an hour possibly much more). I took my friend to this who had never been and she told me that it changed her. It personalizes the Holocaust in a ...

I'm going back!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 12/23/07
This place is so interesting! I really liked this place. I have always been fansinated with the Holocaust and going here taught me a lot about it. I can't wait to go back to it because this place is so well manufactured that you actually learn from this museum. I think that everyone should learn about the Holocaust then take a trip to this ...

Give yourself enough time
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/22/07
If you give yourself only one hour, you'll have to rush. Plan on three hours. You likely won't need that much time, but if you finish early, there's plenty to do nearby. On the other hand, if you rush through, you'll only feel depressed because the first half leaves you without much hope.
The museum (that I could tell) was ...

Very moving...words cant describe it. You have to see it for yourself. You will leave this place with a whole different point of view. Visit during the week, there will be less of a crowd and more time to reflect on this tragedy.

Very simply... a Must for Everyone.
This site requires at least 25 words but, it doesn't take that many.
A thoughtful, provocative, disturbing look into our souls.

By A Yahoo! Contributer, 08/06/07
I live in Washington, D.C. and I have seen more memorials, monuments, and museums than any tourist can imagine. I have been to Yad Vashem and the Simon Wiesenthal Center - they have a totally different feeling. The permanent exhibit at the Holocaust Museum is the BEST exhibit in Washington, D.C.
The museum, from the very beginning prepares you ...

The Holocaust Museum is a DC MUST! It is breathtaking and hopeful at the sametime, and leaves every visitor feeling changed! Plan an adequate amount of time to fully see this museum. Tickets are available in advance.

Amazing
By hernamewaslola, 07/29/07
Beautifully done, very informative. Hits close to my heart. So many preserved artifacts such as shoes and letters from the Holocaust. So many actual accounts of people from the Holocaust. It was touching being there.
