Carmel Fire Victims Memorial, Memorial cenotaph in Mount Carmel, Israel.
The Carmel Fire Victims Memorial is a cenotaph on a hillside in northern Israel consisting of a cement wall inscribed with the names of 44 people. The site overlooks the surrounding landscape and sits near a kibbutz in the mountain region.
The memorial was built after a large forest fire in December 2010 devastated the region. This disaster triggered emergency evacuations and resulted in significant loss of life on that day.
The site becomes a place where visitors and families gather to share memories and honor those who perished in the disaster. These gatherings shape how the local community remembers and processes the loss.
The memorial sits in a hilly area that is accessible by car with parking available. The site is best visited during daylight hours to see and respect the surroundings properly.
The memorial marks the exact location where a bus carrying prison service personnel and training groups became trapped while rescue teams worked to move people to safety. This specific story connects the place directly to the bravery and sacrifice shown that day.
