International Holocaust Remembrance Day is observed each year on January 27. It marks the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1945. Designated by the United Nations, this day honors the six million Jewish people. This day also pays tribute to millions of others who lost their lives in the Holocaust. Remembering this history helps us understand the dangers of hatred and prejudice, and the importance of standing up for one another. Today, we join people around the world in remembering the victims and honoring the survivors.
