The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., is a educational and memorial institution dedicated to remembering the victims of the Holocaust—when six million Jews and millions of others were systematically persecuted and murdered by Nazi Germany during World War II. It serves to educate the public about the history, causes, and consequences of the Holocaust, emphasizing the importance of tolerance, human rights, and preventing future genocides. Through exhibits, personal stories, and research, the museum aims to promote reflection, understanding, and the fight against hatred and discrimination.
