Established in 1980, the Holocaust Center was created as a living memorial to honor survivors who came to Pittsburgh to rebuild their lives and local soldiers who helped liberate the camps. Rather than build a statue or monument, community members wanted a comprehensive resource center that would help people learn about the Holocaust and counter intolerance and hate in all its forms. The Holocaust Center was established through the generous gift of Leonard Rudolph, who believed in the power of giving to transform people’s lives. His legacy continues to inspire the community to work together to build a better world. From 1980-2022, The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh was a self-funded affiliate of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. As of 2022, it is now part of the new Tree of Life.
