Jing-Mei Human Rights Memorial and Cultural Park, Human rights museum in Xindian District, Taiwan.
Jing-Mei Human Rights Memorial and Cultural Park is a memorial site in Xindian District housing exhibition spaces, historical artifacts, and multimedia displays. These materials document political persecution during Taiwan's White Terror period.
The site functioned as a military detention center from 1967 to 1991, where numerous political dissidents faced imprisonment during Taiwan's martial law period. It was later transformed into a memorial to honor those who suffered there.
The memorial preserves testimonies, personal belongings, and documents from former prisoners, creating a permanent record of Taiwan's democratic transition. Visitors encounter the individual stories of people who endured political repression during this period.
The memorial sits near Dapinglin Station on the Taipei Metro and offers guided tours and exhibitions throughout the week. Visitors should allow time for a thoughtful visit, as the content can be emotionally significant.
The original detention cells remain intact within the memorial, allowing visitors to see the physical spaces where political prisoners lived. This direct encounter with the conditions makes the historical experience more tangible.
