About The Memorial

Founded by Holocaust survivor Stephan Ross (of blessed memory), the memorial is designed to inspire remembrance, reflection, and hope. A beacon of light to fight darkness, these luminous spires stand more than 50 feet high, engraved with numbers representing the six million Jews killed during the Holocaust.

Visiting the Memorial

We welcome all visitors whether you’re on your own, scheduling a guided tour, or arranging a school trip. The New England Holocaust Memorial is an outdoor space, open 24/7.

“We must look at these towers of memory and say to ourselves, no one should ever deprive a human being of his or her right to dignity. We cannot give evil another chance.”
- Elie Wiesel, of blessed memory, Nobel Laureate and Holocaust survivor
