In 1997 Cardinal Antonio Quarracino dedicated this 1.80 meter-long, 1.20 mts. wide mural commemorating Holocaust victims in the Catholic Metropolitan Cathedral. The mural was funded and promoted by Baruch Tenenbaum, president of the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation. According to the Foundation, it is the first memorial of its kind located in a Christian church, in hopes of fostering interfaith understanding and respect.
