The Museum of Tolerance (MOT) is the educational arm of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, an internationally renowned Jewish human rights organization. The only museum of its kind in the world, the MOT is dedicated to challenging visitors to understand the Holocaust in both historic and contemporary contexts and confront all forms of prejudice and discrimination in our world today.
Established in 1993, the MOT has welcomed over five million visitors, mostly middle and high school students. Visitors become witnesses to history and explore the dynamics of bigotry and discrimination that are still embedded in society today. Through interactive exhibits, special events, and customized programs for youths and adults, the Museum engages visitors’ hearts and minds, while challenging them to assume personal responsibility for positive change.
Perhaps no other institution offers such a motivational mix of historical discovery and personal empowerment.

The whole museum was wonderful. A little disappointed in the speaker. I thought the speaker was a true Holocaust survivor from the camps.

The museum was fantastic. But the tickets were VERY DIFFICULT to find. We bought them the same day. However, make sure to take that confirmation screen shot! Without it, we would have had to buy 3 more tickets at the door. Plus, there’s NO LINE! So the advertisement is inaccurate.
Also be prepared to have your car searched upon parking.

I paid $41 for the tickets for May 29th and turns out that the museum was not even open on that date - thus I could not go. I need my money reimbursed for a ticket I could not even use.

Excellent museum with information/education about bias/prejudice in all forms including the Holocaust.

You're absorbed in the human experience. Everything you see is relevant to our social past, present, and future actions and survival. All displays are interactive and introspective. One cannot be disconnected, no matter the faith, country, or morality. There is so much history and reflection that I saved the upper levels for another trip.

It an experience that I recommend for everyone. There was information that I was not aware of. There were artifacts I had never seen before.

Very insightful and disturbing that this actually happened. Took cousins from Pennsylvania who were very impressed.

Went with my girlfriend for class assignment. (College) Havent been to the MoT in a few years. Holocaust exhibit was awesome. Very sad. Very informative. Only negative thing I have to say about it is other people/groups were jumping ahead skipping through the walk through displays which was rude/distracting. Staff was someone what rude..starting with security at the gate. Not very welcoming. We were told that there were actual Holocaust survivors who would be sharing their testimony. This was hard to find and we were misdirected to some sort of high school volunteer program. So we missed out on that. And the here and now exhibit was okay. Going over current anti semitism and discrimination. Personally felt like this exhibit could have been better. A lot of it was not in service. Could have done without even visiting this exhibit at all. Overall experience was okay. Not as great as I remember sad to say.

easy experience, security entry was not to bad. Best to tour the museum with a tour guide for better understanding of the excepit. The gift shop is a must!! You will find items at a reasonable price.

I spent over two hours there. The walls are lined with Holocaust survivors, leaving with a "never forget" message. However the opposite side truly delivered the idea of how easily words influence people, positively but mostly negatively. A very powerful message..
