Holocaust Memorial – Berlin

This wall of concrete blocks symbolizes the horrors of the Holoaust.

The enormity and scale of the horror of the Holocaust is such that any attempt to represent it by traditional means is inevitably inadequate … Our memorial attempts to present a new idea of memory as distinct from nostalgia … We can only know the past today through a manifestation in the present. (Peter Eisenman, 1998)
