The Florida Holocaust Museum in St. Petersburg, FL was founded by Edith and Walter Loebenberg with a mission to honor and remember those who suffered during the Holocaust, ensuring that such atrocities are never repeated. Originally established in Madeira Beach in 1992, the museum has since relocated to St. Petersburg and is dedicated to educating the public through exhibits, lectures, and commemorative events.

With a strong emphasis on Holocaust education, the museum played a pivotal role in influencing legislation that made Florida the first state to mandate Holocaust education in public schools. Through the vision and philanthropy of the Loebenberg family, the Florida Holocaust Museum continues to serve as a living memorial and educational resource for visitors from around the world.
