Luxembourg got around to constructing a Holocaust memorial in 2018, and it did a good job of it. The sculptor was
Shelomo
Selinger, who was a survivor of nine concentration camps. The first
synagogue in the country was built on this spot in 1823, and a larger
temple went up here in 1894. The Nazis tore the building down in 1943,
and 1,300 Jews who were in the country at that point did not survive the
Shoah. The unveiling of the sculpture came 75 years after the temple
was destroyed.
