Holocaust Memorial

The Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration is designed to cherish the memory of all of the victims of the Nazi Holocaust. A candle-lighting ceremony is an integral part of the commemoration at which six candles are always lit for the six million Jews who perished, as well as all of the other victims. The commemoration serves as a constant reminder of the dangers of racism & intolerance & provides lessons from the past that are relevant today.

This solemn occasion takes place on the last Sunday of January each year in The Round Room of the Mansion House, Dublin.
