 ELECTRONIC MEMORIAL
This installation is located on the last mezzanine level of the Holocaust. Faces and names of victims of the Holocaust, provided by relatives in Australia, rotate on a screen. It takes one hour for this memorial to display 240 names and faces. If all 6 million victims were to be recorded here, it would take 25,000 hours - nearly three years - to read all the names. |

 SANCTUM OF REMEMBRANCE
