"One of our primary goals is to make credible information about the Holocaust accessible to as wide an audience as possible," Avner Shalev, Yad Vashem's chairman, said in a statement.
"Today, when there is so much disinformation and distortion easily available online, we provide an alternative to anyone who is interested in the truth," he added.
The statement made no mention of Iran, whose President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has frequently and publicly denied the Holocaust, calling it a "myth."
Yad Vashem also maintains versions of its website in Hebrew, Arabic, English, Russian and Spanish, making available videos, photos, documents and the testimony of Holocaust survivors.
