Is there a minimum age requirement? Is it suitable for a child?

Definitely won't recommend taking children to this place

No age limit, but I would not take a child; too graphic and they wouldn't understand. I would take a teenager.

They won't prevent you from taking in a child and leave it up to your discretion. There is an exhibit specifically designed for children, but the regular exhibit is intense and takes quite a while to get through (they recommend 90 minutes.)

It is an intense experience. There are images and exhibits that could scare a child. I would not take a child younger than 12 and would be watchful and supportive of any child as they react to the images and displays.

The exhibit is for mature people only, it can be very graphic so I wouldn't let my kids in

Not if they can't be quiet and well behaved. It's a solemn environment and it would be disrespectful to have crying, screaming or running.

I took my 8 year old and he did fine.

There are no age limits Bur this place could scar ur child. If he or she understands

Frank Nemec | Sep 26, 2018

Yes.. I believe its 11. But I think that is relative to your child you can call the Holocaust Museum and ask them personally.

Some displays are elevated and behind a wall so only adults can see over the wall as to protect children from the images.

There is no age requirements . It depends on what child cause when I was a child I found this type of thing interesting but there's nothing that will scare them emotionally.
