Campaign Against Genocide Museum
About This Museum
People don't just come to the Campaign Against Genocide Museum to learn history; they come to understand the profound resilience of the human spirit. Tucked away on RN3 in Kigali, this isn't a place of quiet reflection but a stark, necessary chronicle of survival and defiance. The journey through its halls is emotionally demanding, tracing the meticulous planning of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi and the courageous campaign that finally stopped it. You leave not with a feeling of despair, but with a powerful sense of the courage it took to reclaim a nation.
Collection Highlights
The museum powerfully details the political blueprint of the genocide and honors the Rwandan Patriotic Front's military response. One of the most moving exhibits is a room filled with photographs of victims, their eyes seeming to hold stories that silence every visitor.
