The tribute to the six million European Jews killed by the Nazi government more than 60 years ago is a stone's throw from the buried ruins of Adolf Hitler's bunker. In the heart of Berlin, near the Reichstag and Brandenburg gate, Berlin's newest and most powerful reminder of the Final Solution will ensure that no Jews murdered by the Third Reich are forgotten. From outside, the 2,711 dark gray slabs form a gentle wave, ankle-high in some places, designed to give visitors a sense of groundlessness, of instability, a loss of orientation.
