United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
The Museum's Permanent Exhibition The Holocaust spans three floors of the
Museum building. It presents a narrative history using more than 900 artifacts,
70 video monitors, and four theaters that include historic film footage
and eyewitness testimonies. The exhibition is divided into three parts:
"Nazi Assault," "Final Solution," and "Last Chapter."

The narrative begins with images of death and destruction as witnessed
by American soldiers during the liberation of Nazi concentration camps
in 1945. Most first-time visitors spend an average of two to three hours
in this self-guided exhibition. Recommended for visitors 11 years of age
and older.
After visitors have viewed the exhibitions chronicling the ghettos and
the death camps, they enter the second-floor lounge to encounter a wall
drawing by Sol LeWitt, entitled Consequence.
