Historical Background/Significance:
Yad Vashem is a place to commemorate all the people who died in the holocaust. Also to commemorate all the Jews who died and were not given a burial. It is to remember all the people who were mistreated just because they were Jewish. For the people who were killed, tortured, and taken from their families, only because of their religion. So they made this museum so we can see what was done to them, and so we can never forget the 6,000,000 Jews.
