Hall of Names, Memorial section at Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem, Israel

The Hall of Names contains a central cone displaying 600 photographs of Holocaust victims alongside biographical records of millions who perished.

Established in 1977, the Hall preserves over 4.9 million names and documents of Jewish individuals who lost their lives during the Holocaust.

The Hall functions as a repository where families contribute Pages of Testimony, adding personal details about relatives who perished during the Holocaust.

Visitors can access digital databases to search for information about Holocaust victims and contribute additional documentation about their relatives.

The circular space features two opposing cones: one displaying photographs extending upward, and a lower cone carved into bedrock filled with water.
