Holocaust Memorial
Zion Memorial Park
Bedford Heights

In 1961, the Kol Israel Foundation built one of the first monuments in the United States dedicated to the 6 million Jews who perished in the Holocaust. Ashes of the victims from concentration camps are buried beneath it and the names of deceased family members are engraved on its surrounding wall.

The Kol Israel Foundation holds an annual memorial ceremony.

See photos and videos from the 2017 Memorial Service.

The new Ohio Historical Marker was dedicated on September 24, 2017.
