Garden of the Righteous Among the Nations, Memorial garden in Jerusalem, Israel

The Garden of the Righteous Among the Nations extends along stone paths with commemorative walls and trees representing different nations.

Architects Lipa Yahalom and Dan Zur designed this memorial garden in 1966 to honor non-Jewish individuals who protected Jews during World War II.

Each planted tree stands with a plaque bearing the name and country of a person recognized for saving Jewish lives during the Holocaust.

The garden remains open throughout the year and offers guided tours explaining the stories of people who rescued Jews during World War II.

Stones collected from various regions of Israel form the garden walls, creating a physical connection between the land and the memorial space.
