Memorial to LGBT Victims of Nazi Persecution — Gan Meir

In January 2014 Tel Aviv unveiled Israel's first memorial to people persecuted by the Nazi regime for their sexual orientation and gender identity. It stands in Gan Meir, the small park off King George Street. The design is simple: a concrete triangle carrying the history, an inverted pink triangle like the badge homosexual prisoners were forced to wear, and three pink benches. The inscription is in Hebrew, English and German. The Tel Aviv LGBT Center is in the same park, and the 2009 Bar Noar shooting victims are commemorated nearby. The park is open and free, a few minutes from Rothschild Boulevard and Dizengoff Center.
