A permanent National genocide memorial in remembrance of more than one million victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.

The Kigali Genocide Memorial is a must visit. It is not for the faint hearted though. It at times graphically captures the period in time when about a million people were killed within 30 days. The quiet spaces around the memorial allows one to reflect on the atrocities in solitude, which is very helpful to help unwind from the emotional experience.

What a great place for extended history on the genocide of 1994 in Rwanda. The welcome from the staff is good, then walking around the ground floor a guide will help you. Isaac was my guide and fully informed about all events from the history of Rwanda to the current day. Ask for Isaac if you need a guide, he's patient and very informative. The building itself was a critical central point due to the location. You will understand why when you go up onto the roof and view the hills. The main memorial statue is beautiful and Isaac will describe the reason for the format. I would not recommend young children but definitely teenagers and adults. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here, it pays respect to the horrific genocide, the people and how the FPA and FPF defeated an uncontrollable, disgusting force...with literally no help from the world until it was way too late. Enjoy.

Fun museum that shows Rwanda before the arrival of Europeans. Also has a little zoo with special animal exhibits.
