Yad Vashem is closed on Saturdays and all Jewish Holidays.
Entrance to the Holocaust History Museum is not permitted for children under the age of 10. Babies in strollers or carriers will not be permitted to enter.
The value and importance of studying the history of Polish Jews during the Holocaust stems not only from the central part it played in the history of Jewry at the time and the fact that the Jews of Poland were the largest concentration of Jews under Nazi rule, nor only from the concentration of death camps in occupied Poland.
