Shoah Memorial
The Shoah Memorial is the leading partner of the Foundation for the Memory of the Shoah. Thanks to permanent support from the
Foundation, the Memorial has been able to develop and host an increasing number of visitors (individuals, school groups, researchers, etc.).
The FMS also funded the renovation and expansion of the Memorial, the construction of the Wall of Names bearing the names of the 76,000
Jews deported from France, and that of the Wall of the Righteous. The Shoah Memorial has an exceptional archival collection that is constantly
growing and is available to researchers.

The Memorial is also an educational and training site recognized by the Ministry of National Education and the Interministerial Delegation to Combat Racism and anti-Semitism. It hosts many groups of schoolchildren and organizes study trips to Shoah sites; in addition, it offers training sessions for teachers. Other professionals (police officers, judges, etc.) also follow specific training programs.
Alongside the permanent exhibition, the Memorial presented temprary exhibitions and an extensive and thorough cultural program (films, lectures, conferences).
