Holocaust Museum Houston
The fourth-largest Holocaust museum in the United States tells its story through survivor testimonies and extends into human rights education.
Located in the Museum District, the museum became the fourth-largest Holocaust museum in the country after its 2019 expansion. The permanent exhibition uses oral testimony and video from local survivors, artifacts, and a railcar from World War II to tell the story of the Nazi genocide. There are also a human rights gallery and art exhibits. The content is heavy but of very high quality, so plan to spend about two hours. Admission is about $20, the museum is closed on Mondays, and it is within walking distance of the Children's Museum and the Museum of Natural Science.
Opening hours
Tue–Sun 10:00–17:00 (closed Mondays)
