Holocaust Museum Boston
About
Holocaust Museum Boston, opening in spring 2027, will be New England’s first museum dedicated solely to Holocaust education. Located on Boston’s historic Freedom Trail, it will feature powerful artifacts, survivor testimony, immersive exhibits and thought-provoking experiences that connect the past to the choices people make today. The museum sets out to encourage reflection, self-awareness, critical thinking, empathy and action among the people who visit.
The museum is the signature project of the Holocaust Legacy Foundation. Its permanent exhibits focus on the history and impact of the Holocaust and its relevance to civic responsibility, tolerance and each generation’s duty to confront hatred.
