Holodomor Memorial

The Holodomor Memorial in Washington, D.C., honors the victims of the Ukrainian famine of 1932–1933 and opened on November 7, 2015. Built by the National Park Service and the Ukrainian government, the memorial serves to educate the American public. It was designed by Larysa Kurylas, making it one of the few monuments in the capital designed by women. You'll find the memorial just steps from the U.S. Capitol, at the intersection of North Capitol Street, Massachusetts Avenue, and F Street N.W. It sits diagonally across from the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum and only one block from Union Station.
