Centro para la Memoria de las Víctimas del Terrorismo, Terrorism memorial museum in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain.
The Centro para la Memoria de las Víctimas del Terrorismo is a museum in Vitoria-Gasteiz dedicated to documenting the impact of terrorism on victims and their families. The exhibitions display photographs, personal objects, survivor testimonies, and accounts from people affected by terrorist acts.
The museum was founded in 2021 as a government initiative to create a permanent space for preserving the memory of victims. Its establishment represented a turning point in how the region publicly addresses this chapter of its past.
The center functions as a meeting space where visitors encounter perspectives on how terrorism has affected different communities over time. It encourages reflection through exhibitions that show how people from various backgrounds have experienced loss and recovery.
The museum offers guided tours in multiple languages, with specialized programs designed for school groups and educational institutions. Plan to spend adequate time exploring the exhibitions carefully to absorb the personal narratives and their emotional weight.
The center maintains an extensive archive of personal stories from people affected by terrorism, with recordings and written accounts that extend far beyond what is displayed in the exhibitions. Many of these materials remain accessible to researchers and remain largely unknown to casual visitors.
