Armenian Genocide Museum

If you want to learn more about the Armenian genocide, the systematic destruction of the Armenian people and their identity in the Ottoman Empire during World War I, I highly recommend visiting the Armenian Genocide Museum. The museum is located a bit away from the city center, so you may need to take a YandexGO taxi to get there. The museum commemorates the victims of the Armenian genocide, which took place between 1912 and 1922, when an estimated 1.5 million Armenians were systematically destroyed by the Ottoman Empire. The Armenian Genocide Memorial and Museum stand as a poignant reminder of the 1.5 million Armenians who lost their lives during the genocide in 1915. The memorial complex includes a stele symbolizing the national rebirth of Armenians, an eternal flame, and an underground museum that provides detailed historical information. Location: Situated on Tsitsernakaberd Hill, overlooking Yerevan.
