Ort der Information
Ort der Information is an underground exhibition at Berlin’s Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, beneath the southeast corner of the field of stelae. Wheelchair access supports your visit below ground. Four thematic rooms document the persecution and extermination of Jewish people across Europe during the Holocaust. The setting adds historical context to the abstract memorial above.
Family stories connect the history to Jewish lives destroyed during the Holocaust, while authentic remembrance sites widen the view across Europe. In the Room of Names, short biographies of murdered or missing Jewish people are read aloud. Their names, birth years and death years appear as projections across the walls. These voices and illuminated details leave individual lives at the centre of remembrance.
