Berlin Holocaust Memorial

Memorial used as public toilet
Berlin's Holocaust Memorial has attracted millions of visitors since it was inaugurated in May 2005. However, some of these visitors have shown little respect for the memorial -- and have used it as a public toilet. The article talks about the various methods undertaken to solve the behavior.

BBC News Memorial Opening
In this article about the opening of the Berlin Holocaust Memorial it talks about the many controversies surrounding the memorial

Almost 8 million visitors since 2005

This article talks about the experiences of visitors within the memorial. It also explains the ongoing evolution the memorial has experienced.

And finally, while looking through different news articles I came across a comment by a holocaust denier that I thought was laughable, but also slightly disturbing that he actually believed what he was saying. From this news site
quote: "This blatant lie named ” The Holocaust” has been exposed, and the world needs to know that fact. Though people still fear the “Scarlet ‘A’” designation when discussing this subject, they should confidently address any medium which chooses to display Holocaust historical information with pointed questions about the lack of physical and anecdotal proof of the event. For example; No Jewish Holocaust ‘expert’ (They are ALL experts on the ‘Holocaust’) will furnish ONE NAME of a Jewish person executed by Zyklon B gas in a concentration camp gas chamber during World War 2. There is a valid why reason Jews are reluctant to provide that name: Because NO ONE, Jewish or otherwise, was executed with Zyklon B gas in a concentration camp gas chamber during World War 2. No one witnessed any gassings of Jews, no training was provided the alleged executioners (And, if one learns of the difficulties encountered with the use of Zyklon B, they would realize the futility of executing people with it)., and no budget wass set aside to fund the executions. It is quite obvious that Jews simply re-circulated their World War 1 atrocity propaganda (virtually word for word..) and gave it the ‘treatment’ to perpetuate a gargantuan lie, which has survived for decades after it was first told."
