New England Holocaust Memorial

Rising 54 feet above Boston’s Freedom Trail, the New England Holocaust Memorial stands as a poignant tribute to the estimated 6 million Jews who perished during the Holocaust. Six glass-and-steel towers, etched with numbers and illuminated from within, form the city’s most significant commemoration of this dark period in modern history. The memorial’s transparent towers, each representing a different concentration camp, invite visitors to walk through and reflect on the magnitude of the tragedy. Today, visitors can experience a somber and thought-provoking space that honors the victims and serves as a reminder of the importance of remembrance and vigilance.
