Unfortunately, our visit was met with disappointment, as it was locked down due to a violent knife attack the day before. We could not walk through it.Full review by Alien W

Well done showing of a dark past. We were in february, and it was not too easy to walk through the stones on the icy surface. But it was worth the feeling.Full review by Beagamax

Sobering and well worth a walk through. This is an appropriate place to come and reflect on how this happened and why it's so important not to let this happen to any group of people in the future. W…Full review by cjyap

I have read a bit regarding the outdoor memorial in all of the comments. Has anyone a comment regarding the Info Center and presentations there? thanks,

Q:
How appropriate is the museum for an 11 year old who knows a little about the history of the Holocaust?
A:
It’s not a museum. Almost like a cemetery of granite blocks in rows. Very appropriate for 11 year old. You should search the internet for a photo of it.

It is a good question. I definitely agree that the audio guide would not be appropriate. Personally, I found this museum to be very moving, but I don’t recall there to be many graphic pictures of dead bodies etc. I would focus less on the enormity of the tragedy and instead look at the individual stories of those who perished. There is one room which details letters sent by those who later died and that would be something a 12 year old would be able to comprehend. To conclude, I would only take a mature 12 year old child here.
