We took a tour of the museum in English with our guide Hasmik who was excellent. During the tour we were amazed by what we discovered and we learnt a great deal about Armenia’s past and hopes for the future. The museum also has a small shop and amazing panoramic views of Yerevan from its’ monument. Visiting the museum is a must for any visitor to Armenia. Tip - Yandex to the museum and walk down the hill back into the city at the end to take in the view.

Everyone must visit this museum if they are visiting Yerevan. The atrocities that Armenians have tolerated and faced over the centuries. It’s as important to visit and learn in this museum as it is visiting the concentration camps in Europe. This is where it all started and how the world stayed silent. It’s extremely upsetting and sad. But we must tell the story and never forget.

We were taken here as part of our group tour. The guide had given us information about the site and the history surrounding it. We decided not to visit the museum itself but spent the time in reflection at the monument with its flame.
An elderly Armenian gent came over to talk to us. Although we didn't have a common language it was clear that our sentiments were the same.

Do plan a visit to this place. The museum depicts the atrocities the country endured. If you move at your pace, it can take more than 2 hours. Carry water or a snack pack as there is nothing close by for a quick bite.

One of the best constructed monuments I have visited. The aura is one of loss but also of a hopeful future. The gardens surrounding the structure of the hill give a feeling that beauty and life can grow from a dark place.
Additionally, as a runner, I'd like to add that the park surrounding the monument is used locally for running and other recreation. I was hesitant at first when suggested by locals to do my morning run there but they welcome it there and you will see others working out there as well.

The English tour was mainly focused on what the 'muslims ' did to the Armenians rather than the 'ottomans'. An unnecessarily divisive narrative endorsed by what appeared to be a prestigious place. Such a shame, especially given that examples of solidarity from Muslim communities and leaders were included within the displays. The words ‘Turks’ and ‘Muslims’ are not synonymous.

For a museum (I can only assume) based on the persecution and discrimination of certain they made sure blind people have no chance of getting to know any of the history. No tour guides, audio guides or public transport. Not sure what happened in Armenia, but they don’t want to share it with the blind. Very disappointing.

My grandparents suffered the genocide themselves so it was a very heartbreaking experience to see what Armenian people had to go through. The museum is very informative and the guide was very knowledgeable. Everyone visiting Armenia should visit the museum to understand what Armenian people had to go through in their past. The photos are very graphic and could be disturbing children, but we chose to take ours as it is part of their history and it really touched their souls.

It's confronting, it's saddening, it's incredible that more isn't known of this cruel crime upon the Armenian people. The display steps you through the progress of this sad chapter in Armenian history and it's indelibly etched in their psyche. You can't help but feel for these people. A must see.

Hi, there are no play centres at this genocide museum, it is really a garden of remembrance along with the actual memorials themselves and of course the museum itself which is dedicated to those who died with pictures, effects and also small films.
Depending on the age of the kids will help your choice to take the,.

Bonjour, le site semble assez excentré : est-il possible d'y aller avec les transports en commun ? Merci beaucoup
