  A well designed museum for putting a sad state in visitors mind. It has a collection of some written as well as photos of what happened in the Red Terror era of the Derg regime. At the last section it has a collection of recovered skulls from mass Graves discovered in some areas in and around the capital Addis.

  Carefully maintained museum with wonderful volunteer guides. Free entrance. Some items are not labeled in English, but only in amharic. However the guide is helpful and willing to translate

  It's easy to get to, even with public transport. It provides great insight into Ethiopia's tumultuous past. There's an entire room dedicated to a mass grave and has the bones of actual people stockpiled from the floor to the ceiling. You're allowed to take pictures of the artifacts as long as you keep the flash off.

  An extraordinary opportunity to learn about the Red Terror Era. The layout is simple allowing the visitors to be confronted to its reality. The guide is also very knowledgeable.

  This museum has a very important message and some of the displays Inside you will not forget. While the staff are willing to fill in the gaps and the signs in the museum are in English, there should be more Information about the historical, social and political context that these terrible events took place in. The museum is free but you can leave a donations. 30 mins maximum required to view exhibits.

  With the slogan at the gate "Never Again", this memorial museum shows the extreme cruelty of ones own citizens on their brothers, sisters, mother & fathers. After visiting the museum you will fight with your tears to the end. If people are set free and legally backed up to do their evil will, there is no limit to the tragedy they can execute. They will kill you in front of your mother/father simply because they can. This museum partially shows the most tragic days of Ethiopia and Ethiopians by Ethiopians during the blood-thirsty regime of Mengistu Hailemariam's Dergue.
