The National Memorial for Israel's Fallen or National Hall of Remembrance, inaugurated in April 2017, in the Military Cemetery on Mount Herzl, commemorates the names of each and every serviceman and woman who gave their lives for the country. The names of over 23,000 are eternally engraved in tiles honoring their memory and sacrifice. Mount Herzl, also called Har HaZikaron, Hebrew for Mountain of Remembrance, is the site of Israel's national cemetery and other memorial facilities. It is named after Theodor Herzl, the founder of modern political Zionism, who's tomb lies at the top of the hill.
