Memorial in Commemoration of Famines' Victims in Ukraine, Memorial complex and museum in Pechersk district, Kyiv, Ukraine
The memorial features a 32-meter white concrete chapel shaped like a candle with gilded filigree flames and windows resembling Ukrainian embroidery patterns.
Established in 2008, the memorial commemorates millions of Ukrainians who perished during the 1932-1933 Holodomor, recognized as genocide by Ukrainian law in 2006.
The Hall of Memory contains granite plates listing affected localities, while the Black Boards alley displays historical documents and testimonies of survivors.
The memorial and museum complex spans 14,000 square meters and welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 to 18:00, including public holidays.
Each fourth Saturday of November, thousands gather at the memorial to light candles, creating a nationwide moment of remembrance for Holodomor victims.
