Yad Vashem Reviews

Fantastic experience. Having learnt about the shoa all through high school, the programs still brought new information, ideas and perspectives

A museum with a hard history. Much aware and understand.

Must visit, experience and remember..this is the right place

For everyone no matter how little or much knowledge they have on the holocaust.

Impressive museum. Very busy at times. Can't those parked cars leave the site?

An important museum for everyone
To fear and not to forget
You have to find out the age of admission to the museum before the visit
Entrance to the Heinishanu Museum Paid parking

A place that makes you think about the scale of the tragedy

A very well recreated experience about the holocaust

Without a past, there is no present worthwhile and desirable to know what happened to the Jewish people

Extraordinary. The intensity of the atmosphere really makes you sick in front of the atrocities displayed and extremely well described. A remarkable piece of architecture too.

A must visit. I actually learned a lot about what happened, more than I would have guessed. I went Friday morning and it was very packed with massive tour groups. There was times when you actually couldn't move there was that many people. Maybe visit at a different time.

Very impressive experience. The overall storyline of Jews in the second world war is described clearly. Besides this detailed personal story's make it possible to understand what it has been like.

A powerful museum that will impress you. In addition to the main hall, which describes in detail the history of the Catastrophe of European Jewry during World War II with numerous exhibits and eyewitness videos, there is a synagogue with details of synagogues that suffered from the Holocaust. It is possible to rent an audio guide for the main exhibition at an inexpensive price. There are a number of monuments. Original installations. Video archive, archive with the ability to trace the history of a specific settlement, an art museum. There are also many trees in honor of the righteous of the peoples of the World, places for rest and snack. Personally, I studied this complex for several full days. Only for the main hall, if you want to listen to all audio recordings, you need to allocate about a day, or several visits for several hours. On Thursday, it usually works until 20.00. There is a free charter to the stop Ar Erzl. In the main hall, they begin to rush guests for about half an hour or even more, etc. closing. Please bear this in mind. There is a wonderful site with a map, a lot of materials and I recommend that you think over the route in advance.

Super disorganized super disaster in queue to visit the tomb

A spectacular museum in itself recommends visiting it

Moving memorial to those who perished, as well as those who risked everything to help. Never again

If I had to choose one place in Jerusalem, that would be the museum. Concrete, modern construction built on the hills below the center of Jerusalem. Access directly from the old town by tram number one ("Mount Herzl" stop.) Entrance to the museum is free, but it is worth to buy audioguide - it is in several languages, including Polish (30 shekels) .The museum is very popular - crowds come to it. It is difficult to turn around in order to see the museum and the park with trees planted by the Righteous Among the Nations need a good 4-5 hours.The exhibition in the museum is modern and very varied. It touches not only the issue of the Holocaust but also the presence of Jews in the world in general. It is a deeply moving and extremely informative place.

Excellent work done in data collection to keep the memory flame alive

Invested and exciting. You need a full day to explore it.
Admission is free, and it is very nice.
The cafeteria is too expensive for unorganized individuals, but the food is delicious.
You have to take into account that sometimes Amos is impossible to park in the parking lot, but on Mount Herzl (about 8 minutes walk, or free shuttle).

Very moving place. My heart breaks for my Jewish brothers and sisters.

A meaningful place showing the history and martylology of Jews. Descriptions in English without Polish. Visiting time approx. 3 hours.

The organization of the place, the exhibitions, the media, the place is always a pilgrimage for different groups, tourists, students, retirees groups, teachers and more ...

Intersting place. Made me look at the Holocaust from a different perspective..

Must visit for every person alive on this planet!
A mandatory visit to any person as such!

Absolute "must see" in Jerusalem! An atmosphere similar to Auschwitz. A perfectly documented and chronologically presented history of the Holocaust. Inside, a lot of souvenirs from that period, including original Schindler's List.
The light chamber is number one in Yad Vashem - it comes out on soft legs.
For rent for 30 shekels, audio guide in Polish.
Contrary to popular belief - you can easily take pictures everywhere, also with flash.

Beautiful modern museum in the structure but which expresses what happened very well. A touching experience. I recommend it to everybody

A must-see for everyone coming to Israel !!!! In order not to forget - those who know, so that they know - those who hear !!!

I have nothing to say heartrending
Present the story of the Holocaust on the other hand and from a different angle
And how they took advanced technological means and turned it into a very beautiful and advanced museum

Have met here my wife for life. For that alone, I have very positive impressions of it. But also a very nice place.

It is important for everyone to visit Yad Vashem. A museum on an international level, conveys the message more strongly and clearly than a trip to Poland! recommended.

This place vividly reminds a Jew that he should never forget that he is a Jew. And if he forgets, he is monstrously reminded of this.

Monument - the city of the memory of the Holocaust of the interrupted life of millions of lives, the place of memory of action in defense of life, thousands of distinguished Polish heroes - HI AND GLORY COME AND COMPLETED

The most important place to see in Jerusalem. The hike may take a few hours, so start early to visit the gardens during the day. An amazing piece of history ...

An important museum .. rich and excellent. the best there is. Requires a minimum of 2 for the museum itself and another hour around. A must see! .. a little crowded .. Required headphones .. (By: Eliran Caesar - Teacher Through Israel)

Best museum I've ever been to. However, it takes half a day to process what you see.

The most beautiful museum in the country. Free admission!

Free entry, underground parking fee. There is no photographer who does not have a signage. A very important museum and its important contents are part of the history of the Jewish people.

A moving monument to those voices who were silenced forever.

Very informative, I was able to locate relatives involved with a rescue of a child.

The place has undergone impressive innovations and was very exciting

Yes you need to go here. If you have already visited one of the death camps this will be quite vivid. Ask about the trees or get a guide, and walk through the children's memorial, which is more of a memorial are installation than a museum. Yad Vashem connects the Holocaust across many nation's; a good basic education.

A really sobering experience! A well done museum about a horrible period of Jewish history.

A place that every person must visit Jews in particular, to see the horrors that Jews have experienced in Europe.

Immensely moving. More than you can take in in one visit

Get ready to experience the anguish of those who have suffered a massacre and to cry. Absolutely not to be missed

The tour is instructive, and from the very first moment it is chilling and tearful.
Anyone who does not take instruction or shelters with instruction on every point makes a mistake!
An unparalleled experience.
The tutorial gives you orientation, and amazing explanations, extensions and references that just reading on the site does not provide.
I recommend ordering, even off-site on the way there, training devices. It's worth every minute !!!

It must not be forgotten
it is a place that leaves traces and we remain without words in front of all these atrocities.

Wow. A really captivating, interesting and heartbreaking place. It stays with me.

Passing this terrible story to posterity is a must for every Jew as it is there as it is written in the Torah Remember what Amalek did to you ... don't forget! , I have yet to see Jews with written numbers from Auschwitz my children have not yet. I would very much like to see something like that in their eyes.
The story of the legacy of Yeshivot members before and after the Holocaust is to be completed in this museum, as well as more information about the Belas Partisan family who saved hundreds of Jews of all kinds, including wise students.
I would also recommend removing some of the pictures that may not be in honor of the murdered.
The main thing is not to go away broken but with a sense of responsibility to all of Israel to continue his legacy in all areas!
Israel Lives!
