Holocaust memorial, Holocaust memorial near Calea Victoriei, Bucharest, Romania

The memorial covers 3000 square meters and features a central structure with a metal band listing names of Holocaust victims.

Romania inaugurated this memorial in 2009 to commemorate 280,000 Jews and 25,000 Roma who died during deportations to Transnistria in 1941.

The memorial includes five distinct sculptures: the Memorial Column, Via Dolorosa, the Roma Wheel, the Star of David, and the Epitaph.

The memorial stands on Ion Brezoianu Street, within walking distance from the Palace of Parliament and Romanian Athenaeum.
