Drobytsky Yar, Holocaust memorial site in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
The Drobytsky Yar Memorial Complex features a 20-meter black menorah leading to a white main building, with names of victims inscribed on underground walls.
From October 1941, Nazi forces murdered between 16,000 and 30,000 residents, primarily Jewish individuals, in mass executions at this ravine near Kharkiv.
The memorial includes the Room of Tragedy, an underground hall illuminated by candlelight where 4,300 names of victims are permanently etched in stone.
Visitors can access both the outdoor memorial structures and the underground commemorative spaces, which contain detailed historical documentation of the Holocaust events.
The memorial's granite stones near the menorah contain natural red veins, creating an appearance of bleeding stone that adds to the site's solemnity.
