Kigali Genocide Memorial in pictures.
The Kigali Genocide Memorial in the Gisozi neighborhood is the final resting place of more than 250,000 victims of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. Its museum, mass graves, and gardens offer a sobering and dignified account of the events and Rwanda's path to reconciliation. A visit here provides essential historical context for understanding the country today.
