Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach

A free outdoor memorial in Miami Beach built around a giant bronze arm reaching up from the ground.

Checado em outubro de 2026

The Holocaust Memorial is for anyone willing to spend a quiet, heavy half hour in Miami Beach, school-age kids included; it is free and outdoors, and the trade-off is that it is a place of mourning, not a casual photo stop.

Why you go

You come to see one of the strongest pieces of public art in Miami. The memorial, designed by architect Kenneth Treister, centers on a huge bronze arm covered with sculpted figures, reached through a narrow passage and ringed by a reflecting pool. A long granite wall carries names of victims and a photo history. It rates 4.8 from 3,124 Google reviews. A visit takes 30 to 45 minutes.

When to go

Our data has no posted hours, and listings disagree, so check the memorial's site before you go. Mornings are quieter and cooler, and the light on the sculpture is softer. School groups come on weekdays during term. Because it is fully outdoors, it is not a rainy-day stop, though a short shower passes quickly. Keep voices low; many visitors come to remember family members.

Know before you go

Admission is free. A brochure is available for a self-guided visit, and groups should book a tour in advance. It sits next to the Miami Beach Convention Center, so use the nearby city garages or come by bike or on foot. Photos are allowed, but treat it as a memorial. Younger children may find the sculpture upsetting, so talk to them first. The Miami Beach Botanical Garden is right next door for a calm walk afterward.
