Awsome.... I learn so much that I dont even know. Small, well maintain and well explain. All in english and spanish. Many photos and videos and articles from that days.

A quite museum tucked away downtown. It’s free and offers such a vivid account of the Nazi regime and life in concentration camps. They have many artifacts and displays that are both heartbreaking and very intriguing. It is a self guided tour, however there is a sweet staff member that is very happy to share stories and offer historical context. At the end the museum patrons are allowed to pay respects by placing a stone on a memorial. I highly recommend a visit. While I have no complaints, I would say that the gift shop is slightly spiritless. Overall though, a great experience.

Very informative and nice, I learned much about the Holocaust that I did not know.

Amazing place. Very well done. Good message. We cannot forget this lesson.

One of the best holocaust museums Ive ever been to. Well put together and eye opening.

By far one of the best museums in El Paso. Its very important to visit history musuems so things like this never ever repeat themselves. It was truly a tradegy.

Wow! What an amazing place to visit! Im glad that my kids got to see this in person. Theres only so much you retain from the history books.

Such a wonderful little museum. I had chills throughout. There’s a nice little bookstore at the entrance with an interesting collection of books. Free admission but I would suggest at least a $5 per person donation.

Very emotional, must visit! The guide was very knowledgeable and he made the experience that much more real. I will definitely visit again.

Great place to visit and look back on true history. The museum was very informative and wonderful displays of the Holocaust. It was Free and they do except donations and they have parking and a store inside to purchase items and books. Very friendly staff and quiet environment to reflect on everything you watch, see and read.

Was very interesting to walk through. Had the place to myself. Didn’t take to long to get through. A lot of info for how small it is. Worth a stop in when in the area.

Very humbling and well designed. The museum walks you through the holocaust from start to finish. I would recommend going to visit at least ince.

“In memory of those who have no one left to remember them.”I did not have much expectation when I visited The El Paso Holocaust Museum and Study Center in Texas. There is no way that it could be better than the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum I visited in Washington, D.C.A look from the entrance suggests that it is indeed a small museum.Also, the museum seems unknown to many in the area, as no one around there even knew where exactly it is located.When I entered the museum, I was surprised how the exhibits were well put together.Small but it has amazing collection of resources and historic items.The coverage of the exhibits is sufficient enough to convey the significant events in the Holocaust.The section about Jewish El Paso history is informative.I would recommend that you visit the museum and donate to help educate everyone of the story that should never be forgotten.

Spent the day with my son studying the Holocaust while we were in town visiting and was excited to go in for a few moments only to be turned away!!!!! It was 4:34 and was told they stopped letting people in at 4:30 even though they don’t close until 5pm. We traveled all the way there to be turned away!! We only wanted a few minutes!I did check the website after writing this review and it does say that tours need to be started 30 minutes prior to closing but I would think as close as we were to the time a little lead way could have been given. Maybe my review will help someone else not get turned away.

Very educational, emotional, and a need be place to visit. The haunting history is undeniable! People need to learn from their past to prevent a repeat in the future. Its the 21st century and were still seeing horrible echoes of racism, anti-semitism, and discrimination in America of all places. People need to vote! People need to speak up and defend each other! The holocaust cant happen again! Walmart shooting cant happen again! Bad leaders in this country cant happen again! Read, learn, vote!

Wow, what an extraordinary experience. Let us not repeat the past.

Its a good, small museum. There are lots of timelines and videos. They creatively present content, including one part where information is presented inside of what looks like a train car destined for a concentration camp. Free admission with $5 suggested donation.

Take the time to stop and see this wonderful arrangement dedicated to all of the victims and survivors. You will leave with and eerie calm and knot in your stomach. So beautifully done, every afflicted person of the Holocaust would be moved to know that their demise may lead to understanding of differences in future generations. A MUST SEE!

Makes you feel really appreciative for how good you have it. I am so glad I went. Its kind of small, but theres a ton of information. I cant remember but I think its free!

Very educational. Sad as well. Its free and they have videos in each area.

I have visited many Holocaust museums across the United states. This museum had a profound effect on me, as many do. Very passionate, hurtful, informative. I did buy two books Im excited to read, and, one for my grandchildren.

I really enjoy this museum, the staff was super friendly and helpful. Powerful experience to learn about this tragic event in history.

With the rising antisemitism and the constant antisemitic attacks we see throughout the United States, its important to remember the history of the Jewish people and never forget what they endured so we will not repeat it.The Holocaust museum has many exhibits and a lot can be learned from it. The tour guides oftentimes have personal connections to family or friends who survived the Holocaust. Very important place for El Paso.

An experience unlike any other. The displays are very informative and invoke raw emotion.

The tour guide was very informative and commuicated the significance of the history and how it impacted holocaust victims personally.

This is a must visit. We really enjoyed the museum. Very friendly staff, question and answer periods around exhibits was great.

Very awesome little museum. Highly recommend it. Powerful experience, took my 13 yo daughter and she highly enjoyed it. It makes you think about our past and value your current freedom! If you are from out of town, from El Paso or from the border region you have to visit.

Very well done! One of the best museums I have been to.

Well done museum of one of humanitys darkest times.

Its a small museum but very intriguing. Lots of information there and they accept donations

They do a great job of telling the story and showing why its so important to learn about the Holocaust.

Excellent place to visit and learn about the history first had. Very friendly staff that will always answer any questions you may have. I walked away with some interesting facts. If your like history and understand the sacrifices that were made during this time in our history. Check this place out. Located downtown and close to the freeway.

Took my younger sister here to teach her of the events. Many of the videos helped her understand. Shes an elementry student and all the examples came as a shock to her but as she watched the videos and had it explained to her she got a better grasp of the events of the holocaust. It opened up a lot of discussion in our household about the events so very well done. Highly recommended as its a powerful Museum that will educate you as well as affect you emotionally.

Reminded of the horrific tactics humans commit to submerge others when in the end the tormentors are submerged lower into oblivion.

Saturday 16 Nov 2019. My daughter, a friend and myself took my 2 granddaughters and 4 of their friends to visit your Museum as they are studying the Holocaust in school. I knew they had grasped the meaning of it all as I saw tears fill their eyes. We stopped by your gift shop where books, pens and other things were purchased. Later we discussed what they had seen in which they said We need places like this so noone forgets so it never happens again. Thank you so much for letting these children have this moving experience. I explained to them though that not all Germans were Nazis and then we discussed Shindler, and Irena Sendler. Thank you and the staff for everything and the experience that my granddaughters and their friends will long remember.

Im glad this place exists. The so well at their charter to educate people about the Holocaust.

It is el Pasos best museum. So much to learn about the need for tolerance in our troubled times today. Wonderful staff and volunteers. Great summer camp for kids.

I really enjoyed it and when I come back Ill come back here because it was very interesting to learn stuff that I didnt learn in school.

Great informative place. Free entry they do take donations to help them stay open and maintain the place as well.

What can I say about this place by far the best place to learn some history. Thank you.

Beautifully done! Tells the story very thoroughly. Imagery is lower impact than other Holocaust museums, so its easier for children and the very sensitive to process. I love the way it takes you through the timeline in each room. Very well done concise videos in each room.

Every person should visit this museum. I enjoyed having the audio visuals included. I also applaud that the museum included many stories of local El Pasoans, who survived and many of the heroes that risked their own lives to save others.

Silent place to both learn about the Holocaust and respect those who died in WWll. Very insightful and would highly recommend coming here if you want to see artifacts from the Holocaust and discover more

It reminded me the Bible I cherish was bought with a price once again. We who call CHRIST LORD, are grafted in to the Hebrew roots of Messiah. Bigotry has no place anywhere, anytime. It will happen again.

My favorite museum in El Paso. It was founded by a survivor and is well done. Very powerful and moving. Everyone should go and see this museum at least once in their life.

This place was incredible it was an eye opening experience

Have been wanting to go here for a few years and for some reason never did until today! I cant wait to go back when I have more time to spend there !

The authentic display items along with the historical information and eye witness testimonials are important for all to see. Improvement to displays have been added for example one can now enter the shower section were as before it was roped off. Dont miss the video in that area. It is on the ground behind the short wall partition.

The museum exhibits were remarkably well curated to both teach and make a strong emotional impact.

The security officer was really rude I politely asked him for a favor and he rudely replied with “no I’m not taking a picture of you” this was not even 2 minutes into the tour. I ended up leaving and not finishing the tour. It was heart breaking not feeling welcomed.

Small but very good exhibit. Worth spending time touring it.

Everyone should go visit, eye opening, heartbreaking and a testament to not let history repeat itself.

It is a humbling experience and it is a great tour to do by yourself and not in a large group. Youll enjoy it better.

I recently visited the museum with my teenage daughter. We were greeted warmly at the front desk. Of note, I was not allowed to bring my backpack into the museum. My backpack contained valuables I did not want to leave in my truck unattended. The security guard wasn’t overly friendly, but efficiently secured my belongings while we toured the museum. The museum was small, but contained a considerable collection of emotionally moving exhibits and videos. There was no entrance fee. Donations were encouraged when we entered the museum, but there was very low pressure from the woman at the front desk. As you exit, there was a drop box for donations. The museum builds upon what you may have studied previously. It left me feeling very raw, but also inspired after watching the video interviews of Holocaust Survivors.

Very informative museum, nice displays, and the one part that stood out to me was the display of El Paso residents who survived the Holocaust and made El Paso their home.

This museum has real people telling their survivor stories, it is fully bilingual and they have a kids section set up in a way they can understand.

The museum is very nice! Since it is self-guided, each station is set up in a way that you can visualize what happened. There are TVs available with a short video throughout the tour, which explain everything from the beginning to the end.In my opinion the videos are not spaced out enough. You have 2 short minutes between each station to look at everything before the video started playing in the next station. What my family and I did was waited for the video to replay before continuing.**Some images shown are not appropriate for small children.**My only complaint was with the security officer on duty at the time of our visit. We were in the last exhibit and had roughly 8 minutes before closing, well as soon as the video ended he rushed us out! We did not have time to look at everything, I tried snapping pictures so I can read/see the information that was posted. We could have easily finish the tour before closing time. We live 18 hours away we will not be able to visit the museum ever again, I wish he would have allowed us to finish. And for this reason alone is why I gave a rating of 3 instead of 5 stars.

Awesome was to show tribute for a sad time.

They did a great jon on this place... very interesting

The museum is very clean and well maintained. All the exhibits are built magnificently and pay homage to the history and survivors of the Holocaust. The museum happens to be one of only 13 Holocaust museums in the United States and is also fully bilingual (English/Spanish), as El Paso has a huge, Spanish-speaking population. Theres plenty to read, see, and experience here. Plan to spend at least 2 hours here, going through all the interactive exhibits. There is ample parking adjacent to the museum as well.

Such a hard place to visit.. so much sadness. It is beyond comprehension what they went through....

Very sad, very interesting. Full correct spanish translations on everything.

Excellent place to visit, I was disappointed with the security officer.. he was very rude and unprofessional. Asked for the epcc code and he gave us an attitude and wanted us to wait more. I didn’t mind waiting but he was just rude!

Very nice museum. A must in the current times

Small but nicely laid out with short videos in several sections making it easy to get thru quickly if you choose or you can take your time & read all the sidebars.

Loved it. We must always remember what took place in the past and keep from this ever happening again. Thank you for having this museum to keep our folks educated.

Very intrested and informative. Really recommend it.

Clearly put in a monumental amount of work for an incredibly important piece of history. If you havent been then you need to.

It was a good place to visit and learn of our past...I couldnt even imagine what they went thru...young people need to see how evil can transform a whole country and we need to treat each other with love and respect no matter the race....staff was very friendly and would recommend it!

Interesting place. Tour guide Ellen was very nice

Very informative and explains everything on detail. Its sad to learn about what happened but its always better to know history and make sure not to repeat it.

The best museum in El Paso in my opinion the Holocaust is my favorite topic in history and I absolutely loved this place. Honestly the way it is set up made me feel like I went back in time. I will be going back with more time to better read everything and understand it better. I especially loved the Train wagon they have makes it seem so real when entering the other room like youre actually walking into a concentration camp although thats not an experience everyone would like to live, it just made it feel so real. Definitely would recommend to anyone interested in the Holocaust and how life was before and during this period. I love it!

Great educational opportunity for young and old!

We arrived at3:35 pm and were met with a darkened exhibit. The executive director kindly turned on the lights and we went through the museum in 30 minutes. It clearly and effectively gives a factual narrative of the events leading up to, the exterminations themselves and the after effects. Make a donation in your way out. Well done.

Good place love the museum very emotional had a bad experience with the security officer there he wanted us to wait 30 mintues to get the code we need for epcc we were there for 20 minutes very rude

I have always loved visiting this museum. Its always been a pleasant experience even with the content it contains. Its very informative and it makes you feel so close to those who experienced such horror. You go on a nice tour that shows you the clothes they wore, the rail cars they rode in, the houses and ghettos they lived in. You also see uniforms the Nazis wore and weapons they used.The Holocaust museum in El Paso has always been on my favorites list.This last time I visited though, we went with a small group of children, maybe about 10 kids and their parents. The tour guide wasnt at all great with children. Im sure she doesnt have kids of her own being how she acted with those in our group. She rolled her eyes a lot at them, and she seemed very annoyed by all their questions. I wish we had a different tour guide this time. She didnt make it as well as it could have been. There was so much potential and so many times that she could have planted a seed in their minds but instead she chose to get frustrated and missed so many opportunities. Afterward, the kids didnt seem to mind her attitude and they kept talking about what they saw and heard and they still had so many questions. I took that opportunity to explain it all a little better for mine on our drive home.Well be going back for sure, but next time Ill be sure to ask for another tour guide in case we get her again.

A definite place to see. Nice to have a place for kids to paint color or draw, keeps them occupied.

Disturbing, but that is the point. Very informative and in an unexpected place

First time coming and we really liked it. Many things here that they dont teach you in school. Lots of information but they keep it really interesting. Would highly recommend it.

Great information on a disturbing time in world history. Must see.

This museum is a must if you want to remember a little of WWII. There is a list of people who survived Holocaust and moved to ELP after that.

Nice experience inside of museum. A lot of WWII stuff.

A small yet wonderful view of one of humanitys darkest moments. Very friendly staff. With adjacent free parking and easy walking distance from downtown events it is well worth a look.

An educational museum

Very informative..... great place for students to learn

Son enjoyed it ...highly recommend

Very nice museum and the staff was very kind EXCEPT for the officer sitting behind the counter. What a jerk! I dont care if youre having a bad day nobody needs to act like that. We visited 6-15-17 around 10:30am.

Great place.

Sobering, heartbreaking, but a necessary reminder.

Learned alot more than what was taught in school! Loved it

Very nice and clean museum. They do not require payment but accept donations. Very well put together and accurately and respectfully showcases the events of the holocaust. A tear jerker, but a must see.

I like how is organize and design. It makes me feel like I was in that time and in that place.Staff really nice.

Highly encourage everyone to visit. Amazing

Great exhibits and vast information about the history of the holocaust. Several videos and readable materials.

Is a very interesting place. I enjoyed visiting the museum.

Not huge or fancy but effective for keeping truth alive!

It is a great place to come and learn the history of what happened during the Holocaust. It is also free but you should give a donation.

Great museum lots of information, somebody out a lot of work into this.

A great museum with lots of local ties! Please help support them with a donation at the end!

All the artifacts and stories that reminds me of the innocent people that died due to a malevolent mind and ignorance.
