The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (German: Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas), also known as the Holocaust Memorial (German: Holocaust-Mahnmal), is a Memorial in Berlin to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust, designed by architect Peter Eisenman and engineer Buro Happold. It consists of a 19,000 square meter (4.7 acre) site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs or "Stelae", one for each page of the Talmud arranged in a grid pattern on a sloping field. The Stelae are 2.38m (7.8') long, 0.95m (3' 1.5") wide and vary in height from 0.2 m to 4.8m (8" to 15'9"). According to Eisenman's project text, the Stelae are designed to produce an uneasy, confusing atmosphere, and the whole sculpture aims to represent a supposedly ordered system that has lost touch with human reason. A 2005 copy of the Foundation for the Memorial's official English tourist pamphlet, however, states that the design represents a radical approach to the traditional concept of a Memorial, partly because Eisenman did not use any symbolism. An attached underground "Place of Information" (German: Ort der Information) holds the names of all known Jewish Holocaust victims, obtained from the Israeli Museum Yad Vashem.

The machine is actually in a souvenir shop opposite the memorial, if you walk from Brandenburg Gate it's behind the memorial furthest shop right. 2c and 1 euro, change very hard to get. Designs are:
1) 'I (Heart) Berlin', standing logo lion,
2) 'Holocaust Memorial Berlin Germany', building,
3) 'Brandenburger Tor', the image of the Brandenburg Gate,
4) 'Berllner Reichstag', a long building.

12/2023: I just received a set of freshly rolled coins from this machine, and they are all perfectly rolled. (Oded Paz)
