    Worth a visit if you are in the vicinity. Small yet informative. Staff is so helpful. Pre-booking is needed.

    A sombre humbling memorial to the holocaust, with lots of information and helpful volunteers. Notes from local survivors also

    Extremely engaging and educational experience about the Holocaust; learnt many things taught by some wonderful educators who were kind, interactive with the audience and providing very interesting activities for us to complete, making the visit all the more memorable

    Excellent! The museum is not big but very informative and nicely presented. The stories of Holocaust survivors give a personal touch for easier understanding what all those innocent people went through. It is so good to know that schools bring kids in there to learn that terrible part of history. No one must forget those horrific crimes. Highly recommended!

    AMAZING and sobering experience. Very emotional learning more about the Holocaust

    I don't see the museum as being small, I see it as another puzzle in the history of the Holocaust, the people affected by it, and how then world responded. And each puzzle piece always adds more to the picture. The staff is informative, friendly and just plain wonderful. And even though there was a school tour during our visit we were able to listen to Andrew Steiner talk about living in Hungary during WWII.

    Small but engaging and deeply moving at times. Although there's one thing I came across that detracted greatly from the experience and does serious discredit to the museum. In the section towards the end, on other genocides around the world, there is a plate that addresses treatment of Aboriginal people in Australia. It states that "all aspects of Australian society" were "active participants" in the genocide of Aboriginal people. This is a horrible thing to say and is inflammatory and untrue. There were many that worked very hard and made great sacrifices to help Aboriginal people. Certainly the past treatment of Aboriginal Australians has been terrible at times and must be acknowledged. But to make an absolute statement damning "all aspects of Australian society" is unreasonable, unjust, and does nothing to further reconciliation.

    A small but excellent museum, well set out, informative. It tells the history of the holocaust, with photos, film, memorabilia as well as having the opportunity to talk to a holocaust survivor. Highly recommended.

    A small but moving display of the stories of Adelaide Holocaust survivors. Worth a visit if you're in the city.
