The Florida Holocaust Museum

The Florida Holocaust Museum honors the memory of millions of innocent men, women and children who suffered or died in the Holocaust.  The Museum is dedicated to teaching the members of all races and cultures the inherent worth and dignity of human life in order to prevent future genocides.   The Museum is home to the permanent exhibition:  History, Heritage and Hope, which uses original artifacts, historical photographs and documents to tell the story of the Holocaust with a special emphasis on the personal stories of local survivors.  It also houses the permanent exhibition, Kaddish in Wood:  Woodcarvings by Dr. Herbert Savel.  These carvings are of French children who were victims of the Holocaust.
