Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex

The Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex, located in Yerevan, Armenia, commemorates the victims of the Armenian genocide that occurred during World War I when over a million Armenians were systematically killed by the Ottoman Empire. The complex features a large, triangular monument symbolizing the pain of the genocide, along with a museum that educates visitors about the events. The site serves not only as a memorial for those who suffered but also as a reminder of the importance of acknowledging historical atrocities to prevent future acts of violence against humanity.
