Everyone should visit this center. It's importance to man and the events that allowed this to happen can never be forgotten. It's a beautiful well maintained building with all the info you need to understand this black mark in history. Staff is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. A must for everyone.

Nice place to visit. A lot of history in Holocaust with every detail in place. Might be a bit disturbing for sensitive group.

Very well done, although the section on Jewish life has a very strong Orthodox viewpoint. Was much bigger and covered much more than I expected. Had to rush through the last half due to closing time. The graphic section is labeled. Some of the subject matter is disturbing, as it must be. Timed entries more, buy your tickets online, you don't have to print it out. Quite educational, recommended.

This institute/museum will reach beyond your expectations. History presented in an education enlightening way. It shows we can all make a difference and make a change. This is a hidden gem in our community. A must for everyone. Make the time, make a difference and come visit. You will not be disappointed

My wife & I went visit here in 2017. From we the beginning we had an kind of idea of what to expect, yet we weren't quite sure what to expect. But upon entering we soon realized this wasn't just an average museum. One of the first things you see as you walk in is one of the actual rail cars used in the transport of thousands to their final destination. The whole place is fascinating, educational, yet very sombering. The items on display were from both sides in story line fashion from the time it began, to end, & how things have progressed since. A picture frame display of an actual tree like the one Ann Frank seen upon her last days is seen at the Museum. The tree is from a seed that came from the tree that provided her the only view of the world outside. The highlight of the trip was story telling from an actual survivor of the Holocaust. He did a very good job, drawing the audience in, as he explained the real story of how his life was during the early years of his life. Folks you can't get more real then that. If you get a chance to hear one of these stories from these folks who lived it I would HIGHLY recommend attending as their numbers are dwindling. The only thing that was very disheartening that was seen, & over heard was from some of the other visitors themselves. Youth groups, & young people in general that displayed a lack of interest in history, & showed a lack respect to those that have come before, & the elder adults with them weren't that much better. Very sad to see. Apparently there's still a battle going on. My only hope is that the battle with the Jewish people, & the unfair treatment of them will one day end.
