Public consultation on next stage for UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre

Editor News

A public exhibition and consultation of the latest designs for the new UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre has been launched by the Secretary of State for Communities the Rt Hon James Brokenshire MP.

In 2016 Prime Minister Theresa May launched a design competition for a Memorial and Learning Centre in Victoria Tower Gardens, adjacent to Parliament in Westminster.

The winning scheme proposed by the team led by architect Sir David Adjaye impressed the jury with a sensitive and impactful design that preserved the green space of the Gardens and respected the UNESCO World Heritage views.

The consultation launched today, running until Saturday 8th September in Central London, will ask for views on the proposed designs for the Memorial and Learning Centre before a planning application is made later this year.
