In May 2005, the city of Berlin inaugurated the 'Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe', also known as the 'Holocaust Memorial'. The memorial was designed by architect Peter Eisenman and covers 19,000 square meters. Made up of 2,711 gray stone slabs, without names or markings, the Jewish Holocaust Memorial is an impressive reminder of the infamous part of the German history. Visitors can walk through the memorial in all directions, as there exist no clear pattern. The memorial can be visited at anytime.
