There are a lot of murals on the sides of the buildings around this memorial depicting Bloody Sunday. Once you know the history of Derrry you will want to walk down and see this memorial and the murals.

This memorial, set amid the many moving murals of The Troubles, should not be missed. Viewing the Memorial helps to understand the years of turmoil, fighting and division in Northern Ireland. Don't miss it!

The memorial and the murals are well done and provide insight into the history of 'The Troubles' in Derry and Northern Ireland.

A great peice of history right here and a must see. It is also surrounded by all the Bloody Sunday Murals and the free derry sign, which are a must see if your in Derry. You haven't seen Derry until you've seen this part of town.

Brings it all home - the tragedy and the recency of events. Thank goodness this day has passed and change occurred as a result of it.

Very interesting to see the story behind the beginning of the "troubles" and how it affected the community. Taking the "black taxi tour' in Belfast later in the day helped tell the rest of the story and was enlightening.

The monument/memorial is small and only takes a few minutes to see completely... but it is certainly worth visiting, even if only in Derry for a day.

Moving experience to stand in front of this memorial and think about the awful events which shouldn't have taken place.

I visited the memorial and enjoyed it very much. It is sad when you know the history, and speak to people that were there. A must see for tourists.

Very powerful and informative. Definitely a must while visiting the murals. There is info on each victim of Bloody Sunday and really gives a good perspective.
