Grand Officer Enrico Misrachi was born in Thessaloniki in 1858 and died in Paris in 1933. He descended from the Allatini family, merchants from Livorno, through his mother Myriam. His wife Silvia Fernandez Diaz was born in Thessaloniki in 1870 and died in Milan in 1954. His granddaughter Luciana Obert Misrachi was born in 1932 and died in 1961.

The monument is shaped like a small temple with a menorah at the center. It also commemorates the family of his grandson Dino Fernandez Diaz, born in Thessaloniki in 1867, who was murdered by the Nazis in Meina on Lake Maggiore on September 22, 1943. The family consisted of Dino, his 46-year-old son Pietro, his 36-year-old daughter-in-law Liliane Scialom, and his grandchildren Giovanni, Roberto, and Bianca, aged 17, 13, and 12.
