Part of Rabbi Menachem Aron's recent visit to Darwin included a special visit to the Darwin Holocaust Memorial and Education Center, hosted at the Darwin Military Museum in East Point.
Opened in August 2024, this exhibit takes the visitor through a powerful display of images, articles and artefacts from the darkest times of Jewish history.
The exhibit was delivered through funding provided by the Morrison government in 2022.
The exhibit also contains details linking the Holocaust to Darwin through a number of stories and facts.
Rabbi Menachem was privileged to meet up with Dr Norman Cramp, who has been heavily involved in the museum, and is a Military history expert, as well as an expert on the history of the Holocaust. Indeed, Dr Cramp authored most of the articles and descriptions contained in the exhibit.
Adjacent to the memorial is a reflection garden, where one can spend a few moments surrounded by beautiful gardens and reflect on those that were lost in the Holocaust.
If you're a local in Darwin, or just visiting, the Military Museum and Holocaust Memorial is a must visit. Make sure to stop by, you'll be guaranteed to learn something new.
