Known forhistorymemorialfreemoving
The oldest Holocaust museum in the United States, this compact but deeply moving institution is built partially underground and houses an impressive collection of artifacts, testimonies, and documents. The architecture itself — descending into the earth — is intentional and affecting. It's free, rarely crowded, and represents some of the most thoughtful curatorial work in the city.
