Memorial sign to Lviv ghetto, Holocaust memorial monument near railway bridge, Lviv, Ukraine
The granite and bronze memorial features a metal menorah and inscribed tables commemorating the victims of the Lviv ghetto during World War II.
The memorial, completed in 1992, stands at the location of the former main entrance to the Jewish ghetto, known as the gate of death.
The memorial emerged from collaboration between the Sholem Aleichem Society of Jewish Culture, local authorities, and international supporters to preserve wartime memory.
Located at coordinates 49.85152, 24.0246, the monument provides visitors with inscriptions in multiple languages detailing the history of the Lviv ghetto.
Private donors funded the memorial during a period of economic instability, with Israeli businessman Saul Lilien contributing one-third of the total cost.
