(Original) Un lugar que te hace recordar la crueldad del ser humano, pero a su vez constituye una excelente enseñanza a nuevas generaciones, para no repetir jamás los errores del pasado.

  • 5/5 Quincy C. 1 month ago on Google • 11 reviews New
    Small, simple, free overview of the holocaust exclusively in Spanish. They had a guide with limited english help explain. Whole exhibit is maybe 6 rooms for 30 minutes. Beautiful memorial artwork at the end. Worth a visit either way but nothing new if you have been to a holocaust museum before.
