The memorial (Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas) in the center of Berlin is the central Holocaust memorial in Germany, a place of remembrance and commemoration of up to six million victims. The memorial, designed by Peter Eisenman and consisting of 2711 stelae of different heights, is complemented by an underground information center. This place in the south-eastern corner of the field of stelae has the function of supplementing the abstract form of remembrance conveyed by the memorial with information about the victims. Four themed rooms provide information about the victims to be honored and the authentic sites of remembrance.

The personalization of remembrance is achieved through the presentation of exemplary family stories from the very different Jewish lives that were destroyed in the Holocaust and through short biographies of murdered or missing Jews, which are read out in the Room of Names.

With this memorial, Germany honors the six million Jews murdered by the National Socialists in accordance withthe resolution of the German Bundestag and keeps alive the memory of an unimaginable event in German history.
