Memorial To The Murdered Jews of Europe, Berlin

2,711 blocks of stelae spread over 19,000 square metres representing the over six million Jews, Romany and homosexuals murdered by the Nazis, located a stone's throw from the Brandenburg Gate, and two stones' throw from the Reichstag.

To walk through the memorial is to feel the scale of the original murderous intent, the immensity of the loss, and the emptiness of the world after the six million left it. It is also to hear the echoes of those vanished lives in the laughter of invisible children, and the tread of unseen feet which reach you in the depth of the labyrinth from around one corner or another. And in the glimpse of figures flitting from column to column, alive now as they were then.
