Lying at the heart of Yad Vashem, Warsaw Ghetto Square has become a key site in Holocaust commemoration at Yad Vashem. The large Square is dominated by the red brick Wall of Remembrance bearing bronze monuments sculpted by Nathan Rapaport entitled “The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising” and “The Last March.” This is the location of the State of Israel’s official opening ceremony of Holocaust Remembrance Day each year.
The refurbishment of the Warsaw Ghetto Plaza was made possible through the support and generosity of David and Ruth z”l, Ira and Mindy Mitzner and Family, and the Phyllis and William Mack Family.
