It was very powerful

Still under construction, but already there is a beautiful meditation garden with waterfalls and place appropriate inspirational quotations carved in stone. There will be meeting and education spaces as construction finishes

Jim Paulson

Very moving memorial. Great place to read quotes and ponder humanity.

Jerome McIntyre

Nothing extravagant. Just walls and a plaque. They could of made it more educational/informative about what is bring memorialized and why.

Riley Larkin

This is a powerful and touching monument, not just to Anne Frank, but to humanity as a whole. This is so much more than a holocaust memorial, and if you plan to visit, make sure to block out around an hour, just to make sure you really explore and read everything.

Jennifer Rollins

It was absolutely beautiful. The quotes on the walls, landscaping and water features we're stunning. It definitely worth visiting ❤️

Jeremy Hamilton

Beautiful area

Kevin Laslo

Beautiful. I loved the area and landscaping around the memorial. There is great information available. I love all the dedications around the area. This memorial is a great place to take your family to understand a little bit about humanity. You get a good feeling when you go to a memorial. Absolutely recommend stopping by and enjoying this beautiful site.

Donna Ahern

Lots of quotes from historical figures. Located next to the downtown library. Greenbelt and river next to memorial. Great educational site.

Always inspirational. A good reminder for us all.

I"ve learned a lot from this place...

Commuter Services

My family visited from Toronto. My sister and her son just made a fuss about how great this place is. Her husband is Jewish, so human rights is really close to home. They read all the plaques and came away with a deeper understanding of people who have contributed to human kind from many ages and counties.

Derek Ganong

Hard to bike through!

This is the best human rights memorial I've ever been to. It is extremely well done. A very tranquil setting with quotes engraved in stone, audio information players, and fountains. Definitely worth a stop.

It's pointless to argue

I don't really understand the necessity of places like this

Y. Salinas Flores

Beautiful place

A quiet respect falls on this area near the Boise river in the heart of downtown. A wonderful place to go to contemplate what role you play in society and how you can become a greater influence for good.

Rickie Meeuwsen

A great spot right on the walkway with beautiful flowers a couple of small waterfalls and plenty of informational plaques. There is some street parking for 2 hours plus the Boise library is right there

Outdoor Human rights memorial with good history reminders

Donald Morris

The information you get is great.

Natalie Purkey

Beautiful memorial for such a devastating time in or world!

channing turner

Great area with a nice bit of nature around it. I enjoyed the quotes and the fountain/pool.

Cameron Schoenfeld

It is a good place to learn about Anne Frank and the Holocaust. It has a lot of information you can learn. If you go, obviously it is a place of respect, so you should limit talking to a tiny whisper and not touch things (except for the little boxes that tell you information). Finally, if you go, you should NOT BREAK OR DEFACE ANYTHING! But have fun learning things you might not have known if you hadn't gone!

Brent Weisgerber

A great serene park with a focus on human rights.

Dee Marling

Very cool.

Orin Alexander

We should never forget!!

Brian Coffey

Incredible place! The attention to detail and thoughtfulness of the physical space and the exhibits conveys the gravity and hope of Anne and her diary.

Stephen England

Given the times in which we live, it'd be a mistake to pass this by. If you are a local, how fortunate you are to have such a moving tribute in your community; if you are visiting, vacationing or just passing through, a tribute to the best in all of us that's well worth your time.

Anna Patterson

Very moving!

Will Salberg

This is a very sobering tribute to the need of continued kindness to other human beings and to the need to always be vigilant against the atrocities that man can commit against fellow man. If you have the time I would recommend this as a place to visit and reflect.

Aaron Jones

A good well designed place to reflect on your thoughts, learn a little history and just enjoy the sun. Right off the bike path and short walking distance to many parks, restaurants and the library

Cody Cannon

Perfect spot to bring the mob of chaos you collect during a weekend well spent at 4 am

Jared Gonzales

Great information in a beautiful place. Great for pictures and a quiet place to get away.

ALFRED DIMAS

This is very impressive and necessary for any age to see in order to be mindful of how one person can make a difference!

Aubrey Matthews

If you really want to think about the impact of your life and the difference you can make this is a great place to be. You come to appreciate your rights and privileges and gain an understanding of what others have gone through. Definitely a must see if you're in Boise

Jay Massee

One of Boise's jewels! Very beautiful, enlightening, tragic & educational. I've been here dozens of times and each time I come I find something or learn something new. I'll keep going back, so should you.

A place of human healing

Jeraldine Corrie

A group of 18 toured the Anne Frank Memorial on June 20, 2017. It was a very hot day and our tour started at 12:15 to 1:00. Our docent - Ann Byron did a excellent job despite the heat and even a larger group as several people joined us. Thank you for your service as a volunteer. I know I will return with not only out of town guests but myself to read all of the writings.

Robbie Gonzales

Lots of fallen gamers

Crystal H

Quiet thoughtful place to visit in the heart of downtown. Right next to the green belt, the river, and 2 of Boise's best parks.

Susan Pickette

So beautiful!

Geraldine Ruber

Having good time I am staying here.

Scott Valenkamph

Nice little park/memorial in the heart of Boise. Everyone should take about 30 minutes out of their vacation, and come here. The art, quotes, and history you can learn here is very humbling.

David Tilley

Beautiful, contemplative, peaceful.

James O'dell

Definitely worth visiting .

elean valdez

This is probably the coolest outdoor activity ive ever seen on the greenbelt recommend for families and kids

A nice place to wander around, read/listen about Anne Frank (listening is available in multiple languages), meditate, get lost in a book, have lunch, and be peaceful.

Derek Davidson

Who is gonna give this place a bad review?! Its an Anne Frank memorial!

Katie Walsh

Beautiful Memorial. I am a photographer and there are lots of nice areas for photos. By the greenbelt. One down fall, and not to sound mean, but there are a lot of homeless near by.

Mark Shaw

A moving tribute and space for reflection

Dennis Blasko

Right off the Green Belt, I wasn't expecting to shed a tear. Wonderful memorial.

John Bamberg

We found the "deep" philosophy rather shallow and affected.

CA Elias

Very thoughtful. And soon more to view. Construction ongoing. Quotes from great people around the world. A bit difficult in parking at the moment due to the construction, but it will be worth it.

Emily Coutant

Really important place to take children to, the history is real and relevant!

astryd savage

beautiful memorial to walk around and enjoy!

Luis Martinez

A very inspirational and moving monument to human rights

McKenna Gowans

Best and only human rights memorial in the US. Loved how it incorporates more than one person-lots of people had an impact anf mad it an amazing place to visit! Love the audio "tours" as well- lots if great information.

Tenjin Doji

Good for pictures and a solemn moment. This place offers a still frame in time providing context as to why it is important to stand up to oppression. I go see it two or three times a year. It's easy to get to and has plenty to do around it, like the museums and library.

Kimberle Leeds'Cardona

So beautiful!

Justin Mauzey

Interesting and informative. Quiet sitting place, great quotes. I know Ann Frank's story and it was required reading when I was in school. If you forget, you're doomed to repeat. Educational without being too descriptive or inappropriate (for all ages).

Matt Howell

So inspiring

Haylea Ama

Loved the audio track part! The grounds were really well kept and the quotes were all really interesting. Very thought provoking.

Paul Sweeney

Very educational. A must visit to fully understand the relationship between you and the world. Do not miss it.

Jeroen Tahey

Interesting and nice place

Kayla Gallup

I LOVE Idaho!!! This place was so beautiful! And meaningful!

Taylor Wisler

Beautiful place on the river. Homeless people tend to hang out here during the day though, so it's not always as nice to visit as it could be.

Maurice Troutman Jr

Shows you how even though there is so much hate and ignorance in our world, love still stays strong.

TreasureValley Score

Love, love, love this place. It is deeply spiritual and speaks to your heart. It's a meditation in nature. It keeps calling me back again and again!!

Patti Harvey

Very powerful

James Peveler

Very interesting place. Lots of good information presented in a pleasing setting.

Kirkland Clements

It was beautiful. A little cold but very pretty area and well taken care of.

Ryan Stafford

Words to live by. The Idaho Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial is worth visiting for inspiration. The messages give hope and warning to us, so that we can make the best decisions in the future. We must learn from the past. There is much to see and read here. Spend some time by the waterfalls and relax. There is a road nearby, so you may not have the peace you're looking for here.

Jose DeSousa

If you love history definitely the place to bring your family, especially if you have children.

Christie Carroll

What a great treasure to find when looking for some local flavor. I appreciate everything this memorial stands for and what it hopes to convey in teaching both young and old visitors to the memorial. I found it incredibly powerful and after the first section was crying the whole time knowing the courage, pain, and devastation most of the people highlighted experienced. Its powerful. It was still under some construction so I can see it only getting better when that new section is complete but even with one part fenced off for work the walls of quotes, the voices you can listen to, and ability to sit and reflect is a really special experience that I wish more cities brought light to something many people don't even know about. I went with my guy and his niece who is 9 and she didn't know who Anne Frank was and at first didn't understand why I was crying when going through the exhibit. Its a great example of ways to show compassion, love, tolerance, and history to many.

Mary Panzer

This is a very special place. Very welcoming but also very poignant. You can stand in the same size room that Anne Frank lived in for 2 yrs. You can learn about many other instances of tragedy without getting too overwhelmed.

Jeffrey Reed

So happy that this place is here. Good job Boise!!

John J. Sims

Thought-provoking

Miles Lowber

A very great exabit

Beautiful, somber, thought provoking place.

This is a great memorial. It is interactive and a great place to read about injustance and the holocaust. It is fully outdoors and has quotes and areas to listen to the Ann Frank story. It is also right off of the green belt.

Beautiful area with audio interactive services. Lovely

Julie Rainey

Nice memorial.

Cecelia Blewett

Great place

Remko De Bie

Memorial a.o. with the full text of the declaration of human rights. Near the greenbelt.

I have always loved this monument. I enjoy how it has evolved and hope they get the basement of the log cabin for their new office space.

Bob Crowder

Awesome memorial, well planned and put together, very moving.

Susan Busche

Beautiful... thought provoking... peaceful.

Aaron Nieradzik

This is a great site to see if you are in Boise. It gives us a sense of the troubles these people faced. I took my family here and was glad I did. I would definitely recommend it.

This place simply brought me to tears
