Visit the Memorial

The Srebrenica–Potočari Memorial Center stands on the grounds of the former UN base where thousands sought refuge in July 1995.

The Srebrenica Memorial Center in Potočari, Bosnia and Herzegovina, is the principal place of remembrance for the victims of the 1995 genocide. The complex includes a cemetery where identified victims are buried, a memorial room, and exhibition spaces in the former battery factory that housed the Dutchbat UN compound.

Each year on 11 July, families gather for the burial of newly identified remains and for collective prayer and remembrance. Visitors are welcome throughout the year to pay respects, learn the history, and support the work of memory against denial.

Please approach the site with the dignity it requires. Photography rules and visiting hours are published by the Memorial Center.
