Billet d'entrée au Musée national de l'Holocauste et au mémorial d'Amsterdam

This was a very moving experience. It is a former Jewish theatre that was taken over and used by the Germans to deport tens of thousands of people to the concentration camps. There is a film / audio tour, explaining the process as well as personal stories from a few survivors but mostly victims some information was gathered by journals and letters that were found. There is a reflection garden that has a monument where people still place stones to remember the people that were lost and that suffered here. THe building was bought back to be converted into this monument. It is across the street from the National Holocaust museum. There are several other memorials in the area that I am grouping together- such as the memorial wall. You can also look up names of victims from Amsterdam on the digital monument by typing in their namess.

This is a very impactful museum and very well done. The video interviews with survivors are outstanding and the interactive ones are amazing.

It gives a different perspective from all nations and reminds you not only of the horror what took place but all those who tried to help.

I was so impressed to sit and listen to the stories told by the survivors themselves, as older persons. Remarkable and touching. Then photographs, personal belongings of both young and old were unforgettable.

Insightful and impactful!!! Enjoyed all of it. So important to remember our history so as not to repeat evil.

I like that it is self guided so you can take your time. While the subject matter is very somber it is a must experience.

It was confronting but told the story as it was and it was eye opening and hopefully nothing like this in any magnitude happens again As it said on our way out Now you know, don’t forget Thank you to the staff and for keeping these sad events at front of mind so we can reflect and hopefully make the world a better place Don’t forget to visit the cafe on the corner - that sells swinckels- has great food and coffee. MatreD was lovely

Interesting & thought provoking. It's unbelievable the cruelty the Germans inflicted on the Jews & other groups of people who didn't conform to the Nazi ideology. I thought the museum handled this terrible period in history sensitively.

This was a wonderful way to learn about the Nazi impact in the Netherlands It was very well done and brought about many emotions for me. We spent almost 4 hours here!

It sucks as if you are not up front in the group you see nothing. If you take your time reading you miss half the stuff the presenter says. The speaker on the copper part of the tour had the WORST sound. It echoed and made it almost impossible to understand him. I thought it was a WASTE!
