This research studies two memorials to the Holocaust victims in Minsk, Belarus with the aim to identify how these spaces of commemoration were formed. The study builds upon the analysis of three spheres: the physical space of the chosen memorials, decision-making process regarding their installation, and social practices that have happened around. Additionally, this thesis analyses the correlations of these areas. The methods for the research are qualitative and explorative case study analysis. An extensive review of documents and media is done. Additionally, direct observations of the urban memorials were conducted.
