Menorah, Holocaust memorial in Dorohozhychi district, Kyiv, Ukraine
The Menorah monument stands seven meters tall at Babi Yar, featuring bronze and stone construction with inscriptions in multiple languages detailing the 1941 tragedy.
The memorial marks the location where German forces executed over 33,000 Jewish residents of Kyiv during two days in September 1941.
Annual commemoration ceremonies at the Menorah monument bring together Jewish communities, government officials, and citizens to honor the victims of Babi Yar.
