Impactante obra en memoria de las víctimas de Auschwitz.
En la placa de al lado explican un poco sobre el diseño del memorial:
"
It seemed as if it would be impossible to design a memorial for the site of the urn containing ashes of the victims murdered in Auschwitz concentration camp to be laid to rest in Dutch soil. How can you devise a form to mark a crime which you know in your heart will till be unforgiven when our planet ceases to exist two, or two thousand centuries from now? To attempt to find an image to reflect the ignominy and the suffering transcends the limits of your comprehension. When you look up at the sky it is impossible to imagine the same sun shining over that destruction as indifferently and peacefully as over a meadow filled with flowers. In a vision of justice the blue sky above you cracks apart as if the horrors that took place on earth below have desecrated eternity forever. That is what led me to place these broken mirrors on that small plot of ground above the urn. Here you will never again see the heavens reflected undesecrated. - Jan Wolkers - 1977

Estaba un poco descuidado pero, siendo finales de Octubre, hay muchas lluvias y hojas cayendo.

Seriously, Amsterdam? This is how you maintain your historical monuments? Sad...
Nice to see and collect your thoughts on what people had to go through.
Schönes, eindrucksvolles Monument, welches die schreckliche Zeit des Holocaustes und das zerbrochene Leben und die Zukunft der Menschen auf simple Weise gut darstellt. Interessante Infotafel befindet sich direkt daneben
It's so simple, but so beautifully done. I feel like a lot of these reviews didn't bother to read the sign explaining the art. It hit me in the heart immediately.
Pretty ugly, also not wanted here but forced upon this place in the city.. It's a shame it's so badly maintained.
Schade das dort die Jugend ihre Zeit mit Gras rauchen verbringen,denke das muss dort nicht sein...
Aber ansonsten gut gemacht

Very meaningful. Great place to visit and to recommend in These times where in Europe are raising again populist movements that are already taking us to dangerous decisions and acts.
