Kigali Genocide Memorial
Kigali Genocide Memorial
Kigali Genocide Memorial was inaugurated on the 10th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide.
The Kigali Genocide Memorial at Gisozi has 250,000 victims buried there.
The wall of names is dedicated to those who died and is a work still in progress.
Many of the victims’ names have yet to be gathered and documented and many of the victims who rest in the graves are unknown.
The centre also provides support for survivors, in particular orphans and widows.
The largest memorial is in Kigali even though the genocide touched all corners of Rwanda.
In this regards several other memorial sites were established across the country.
They include;
- Camp Kigali Belgian Monument
- Nyanza Genocide Memorial
- Ntarama Genocide Memorial
- Nyamata Genocide Memorial
- Murambi Genocide Memorial
