Stone Plaques of Death Camp Names

<strong>The Dome of Contemplation</strong> The procession continues into an area enclosed by a dome and semicircular wall with an eternal memorial flame and inscription from the 23rd Psalm.
<strong> Piercing the dark interior of the dome is a shaft of yellow light projected from a central yellow Star of David with the black letters “Jude,” reminiscent of the patches Jews were made to wear during Hitler’s reign." />
<strong>The Lonely Path</strong> The next space is a dark and lonely stone tunnel illuminated by thin slats of sunlight, while the haunting voices of Israeli children sing songs from the Holocaust.
