The Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe
In 1999, a memorial site was established for the murdered Jews of Europe. Architect Peter Eisenman designed the site.

For the Memorial, Eisenman placed over 2711 concrete slabs on a site that measured 19,000 square meters. Its uneven concrete floor gives visitors a moment of uncertainty or even giddiness. Its openness and abstractness allow one to confront the topic in their own personal way.
