The Visitors
The rock walls in the Valley rise up to a height of some 30 feet or more. Walking through the courtyards, one feels small, dwarfed by the sheer size of the monument, and awed by the enormity of what was lost.
Visitors come the Valley to remember what was, to remember the thousands of Jewish communities that were destroyed together with the six million victims of the Holocaust. A complete world, flourishing with creativity and culture, religion and tradition, social life and politics was almost entirely wiped out.
