El Paso Holocaust Museum

El Paso Holocaust Museum is a somber educational museum where the public can learn about what transpired during the Nazi Holocaust. Its purpose in educating the public is to ensure that similar acts never again occur, to oppose prejudice and bigotry, and to accept the value and dignity of human life. It is also a memorial to the more than 11 million people who died during this horrific period and a salute to the bravery and heroic efforts of rescuers and partisans. Video presentations, displays of artifacts and anti-Semetic propaganda materials and recreations of key events all help convey its message. Perhaps the most moving exhibit of them all is the "Final Solution," which is the "boarding" of a railcar used to transport the Jews from the ghettos to the Nazi death camps.
