Berlin Holocaust Memorial Sculpture

Wandering #Berlin 's "Jewish Quarter," I happened upon this memorial, dedicated to those who tragically lost their lives during the Holocaust. In Berlin, the Jewish population fell from 160,000 to 80,000 by 1939. By 1943 almost all had been deported to concentration camps. The Holocaust ended up being the largest genocide of the 20th century, with 210,000 Jews killed from #Germany alone. The people of Berlin have not forgotten the event, and memorials, museums and remembrances like this can be found all over the city.
