“Moving”
If you want to begin to understand the Holocaust, this is the museum to visit. Be prepared, though,it will move you as nothing else will. See the outside exhibits also, I was particularly moved by the children's exhibit with all of the candles.
“Spend the afternoon here”
This is an amazing museum full of lots of incredible jouneys during the Nazi war. Be prepared to spend a very long time going through the different rooms, and to be overwhlmed with all the stories and memorabilia. It was a horrific war and some things are extremely graphic.
