Trees,
symbolic of the renewal of life, have been planted in and around the Yad Vashem
site, in honor of those non-Jews who acted according to the most noble
principles of humanity by risking their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust.
Plaques adjacent to each tree record the names of those being honored along with
their country of residence during the war. More plaques appear on walls of honor
in the Garden of the Righteous Among the Nations.
