Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum

The Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum is committed to teaching the history of the Holocaust and advancing human rights to combat prejudice, hatred, and indifference. A not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) since 1984, at our inception we were founded by a group of local Holocaust survivors who wanted to preserve the memory of what they had endured so that it would teach others the consequences of unchecked hatred and bystander behavior.   As the center welcomes more and more visitors, the need to expand became more and more apparent. In 2016, the Dallas Holocaust Museum/Center for Education and Tolerance broke ground on a more extensive, free-standing facility on a lot on the north-west corner of Houston and Pacific streets, still located in the historic West End District. You can see our progress when you visit the Museum by simply crossing Pacific Street.   In 2017, we hosted more than 36,512 students and 50,331 general visitors. Tours are self-guided using digital Audio Guides included in the price of admission. The audio guides are in English and Spanish. Student and other group tours can request a docent. The exhibit can take from 30 minutes to 2 hours to view.
