Inhaltsangabe

Yad Vashem – The Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Authority – was established in 1953 by the Israel Parliament. It is dedicated to the study and commemoration of the Nazis’ genocide of the Jews and is located on the Mount of Remembrance in Jerusalem. In 1957 a first building opened, and over the years a series of institutional spaces and memorials, gardens, and artworks were added. This culminated in 2005 with the inauguration of a major new centerpiece, the Museum of Holocaust History and ancillary structures, designed by Moshe Safdie. Using evocative photography, this book explores how architecture copes with commemoration and discusses the work of one of today’s leading architects.
