You can create a Tribute page to show your support for JNF's 9/11 Living Memorial in Jerusalem.
The 9/11 Living
Memorial, located in Jerusalem’s Arazim Park, commemorates the victims
of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and stands as a reminder of
shared loss and a call for collective understanding. The monument,
which was dedicated by Jewish National Fund (JNF) on November 12, 2009,
is one of the first major international memorials to the victims of
the attacks and the only site outside of New York that lists the names
of the nearly 3,000 men, women, and children who perished.
Designed
by award-winning Israeli artist Eliezer Weishoff, the 30-foot high
bronze sculpture is composed of an American flag transforming into a
memorial flame. It rests on a granite base that includes a metal beam
from the wreckage of the Twin Towers, generously donated to the
Jerusalem Municipality by the City of New York. Surrounding the
sculpture is a crater-like stone plaza lined with metal plates that
bear the names of those who lost their lives in New York, D.C., and
Pennsylvania. Amphitheater-style benches along the interior provide
visitors with space for viewing and reflection.
