Holocaust Memorial is a sculpture that conveys a circular space, which is 10 ft x 24 ft x 20 ft. The ground is laid brick that is almost enclosed by granite seating which forms the circle. At the entrance there are 22 trapezoid panels of steel, eleven on each side. Each trapezoid has a name of a concentration camp in steel that can be seen from inside the circle. On the opposite side of the entrance there is a Granite Pillar with a yellow band. The sculpture also has an inscription which reads "IN MEMORY OF THE SIX MILLION JEWISH MARTYRS WHO PERISHED IN THE HOLOCAUST AND IN RECOGNITION OF THE COURAGE AND SPIRIT OF THE SURVIVORS"-Wikipedia
