Torchlighters
Each year, six Holocaust survivors are chosen to light torches in memory of the six million Jews who perished during the Holocaust. Their wartime experiences reflect the central theme chosen by Yad Vashem for Holocaust Remembrance Day. The torches are lit during the central memorial ceremony held at Yad Vashem on the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day.
