Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum

"Overall it was a good experience. I enjoyed watching the 4 different videos that would eventually lead you to the main exhibit. I enjoyed all the different visual maps and audio clips of the holocaust survivors. I also enjoyed how the museum was in a chronological order which allowed the guest to piece things together appropriately. Military members do get in Free, which is a plus."

"I absolutely adored the museum. We parked in a parking garage across from the museum, and when we went in there was no wait to buy our tickets. The woman at the front desk was so nice and helpful, she explained everything to us and answered all of our questions. The museum is mostly reading but they do have some videos and survivor testimonies to listen to as well. There were also a few interactive exhibits and they provided foldable chairs if needed. The bathrooms here were extremely clean as well. It's a wonderful museum to expand your knowledge on the holocaust."

"My 8 year old and I went for Spring break as she was curious about what happened during the holocaust. We parked across a small parking garage for $10.83, and it was gated so it felt secure. Now I will say this, when you start the exhibit there will be a short 5-6 min introduction video about human rights and about the holocaust..when the video is over the lights shut off, the automatic doors on the right will open by themselves followed by creepy instrumental sound, and there’s a voice that says “come in” and its dark in the other room you need to walk into. Well I was alone with my small daughter literally just the TWO of us….when I tell yall that even freaked ME OUT…it felt like I was about to be sacrificed in a ritual…so hear me out make sure if you have small children..make sure there’s more people in the room so it doesn't feel terrifying..and not to be dramatic but my daughter was so scared after that happened she kept looking at every door. I felt so bad but I get it its part of the experience. Another thing I will say, this museum is about 99.9% reading…diagrams and pictures with data with lots of political information. If you are REALLY interested in learning about the holocaust, make sure you come by yourself or with an adult buddy or older child rather than with small child(ren) for the first time so you can actually read the information calmly. Last thing, ofc its self explanatory, but coming out of the museum I was depressed for the whole rest of the day, that I even cried myself to sleep bc Im an empath and it affected me seeing children victim photos, hearing the morbid testimonies from victims and gruesome facts about what happened. So please BE AWARE if you are a very emotional person, its better to hold off. FYI, takes about 3-4 hours to read mostly everything in detail but there’s little foldable chairs they offer which (I loved that detail!) Other than that, its a great place to learn about the holocaust in Dallas! Give it a try!"
