My wife and I visited this memorial while we were on holiday in Paris. We are not Jewish but we felt that we should review this disturbing history. There is no admission fee. When you enter the museum, you will see the Wall of Names...More

If you visit Paris but fail to visit Memorial de la Shoah you have missed one of the most important places in the city. We always stay in Le Marais when we visit Paris and love the friendliness and character of the 4th arrondissement. We...More

The Memorial is not very in depth. I thought there would be a lot more. I did find some relatives names on the wall of people sent to the death camps and it made a big impression on me. However, the main exhibit (if not...More

When I saw this on my map, I was expecting a memorial plaque or statue. WRONG AGAIN! This is one of the best Holocaust displays I have seen. The outside stone work and wall listing all of the citizens murdered by the Nazis is a...More
