Cambodian Genocide Museum

The Cambodian Genocide Museum, located in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, commemorates the victims of the Khmer Rouge regime (1975-1979), during which an estimated 1.7 to 2 million people died from starvation, forced labor, and execution. The museum includes the Tuol Sleng prison (S-21), where many were imprisoned and tortured, and emphasizes education about human rights, justice, and the importance of remembering history to prevent future atrocities. It serves as a poignant reminder of the brutal past and the resilience of the Cambodian people.
